VERY noobish question

DanM2C · 10-10-2020, 03:29 PM

Hey all thought someone on here could help me with a very noobish question. Recently decided to switch from 788s to 763s. Tires still have a good amount of tread left (pss, 245/35/19, 265/35/19) and I am planning to transfer the tpms and tires to the new wheels. I am going to obviously have the tires mounted and balanced but generally would it also require a realignment?

Thanks ahead of time!

I don't think a realignment is necessary. Only if you have uneven tire wear would I get a realignment.

Alright awesome! Thanks 😊 Just has an alignment about 3 weeks ago after having the Coilovers put on so was hoping I could get away without

No alignment needed for a wheel/tire change especially when you had one done 3 weeks ago.
If the car pulls to one side after tire change, that’s tire defect.
