Different rims and same tires...need an alignment?
I picked up a set of 15" x 7 olds rally wheels this weekend. Tires that came on then are cracked so I am going to use the tires on my current wheels. I had an alignment done about three months ago. Question is if I swap rims and rotate tires, do I need an alignment? Thanks

Wheels, tires and location will not affect alignment angles.
The exception being if you change the stance of the car by putting smaller front tires on the rear and larger rear tires to the front. Then it could change your caster somewhat, but that angle won't wear the tires and besides that would look strange anyhow.
