Lets talk about alignment after tire install.....Im of the opinion that alignment only needs to be done after a suspension change. It is not necessary after new tires. In fact, if it ain't broke don't change it. If it's not out of alignment now, how do new tires put it out of alignment? Agree, tire shops recommend an alignment but I don't buy it when I have history on the vehicle. If investing new tires on a "new to me" used car it is different.

By the way. I have the Bridgestone Dueler Alenza and they are fine. Had them for 5,000 miles. good enough in rain and snow. No problem with them. Why not another set of Yokohamas?

At some point I'll switch to a 17 inch wheel so I have more choices, no rush.
