If I swap wheel and tire sets (i.e. put on winter rims then summer rims), do I need to get them aligned? Or can I just jack it up and use a tourqe wrench myself? Any specific instructions or pressure advice? Thanks!!

 

Torque setting is about 70-80 ft lbs for the wheels. I personnally have used 80 ft lbs on my Volk GT-7's. I am not an expert but I do not think you would need to have an alignment done. I have never been told I need an alignment when I have bought new tires or changed tires and rims.

 

No, not just for tires and rims. If you lower your car, then you need to do an alignment though.
