Is Allignment Necessory ?
03 civic. i had 185/65/15 tires on my car and i replaced them with 195/60/15. car is not showing any sign of pulling any side, i dont see any sign of getting allignment done. Is it still necessory to get allignment done since i have replaced my tire ? Please advise.

No. The replacement tire is close enough to the stock size tire to not really throw anything off. Unless you notice abnormal wear, or it pulling to one side, I'd say that you're good to go.

I would highly recommend waiting until you get your camber kit, to do the alignment. It will definitely make a difference.

Much like what fventura03 has mentioned, when the 7th gen Civic's get lowered, the wheels bow in at the top of the tire, causing unusual tire wear.
This is an example of what happens when you lower the Civic:
Loads of Negative Camber causes premature wear on the inside of the tire. So, there's company's like SPC and Ingall's that make camber kits for our cars, both front and rear.
