Hey,

The reason I'm asking is because I currently have 16' inch wheels and am finally going to be able to do my rear disc swap today. I've got 15' wheels coming next week sometime. Can I get an alignment now, or should I just wait till next week and drive the car as least as possible? Does wheel size affect alignment?

Thanks.

 

No. But since your getting new tires I would just wait and get it all done at the same time.

 

No, your wheel size won't have an effect, but swapping to disks will. Get the alignment done after that. I switch between 14" and 15" all the time (summer, winter, track tires).

 

Ok cool. I didn't think it would but it's always good double checking. I think I'm gonna get the alignment done asap with the 16' inch wheels cause those tires are brand new, whereas the tires on the 15's are busted and might affect the aignment reading.

get an alignment after the disc swap. if you're switching trailing arms, your toe will be off a bit
