An alignment should always be done after any suspension work. The car will only settle about a 1/16 to maybe 1/8. That is not enough to change camber after alignment. You should get an alignment asap to correct any changes in caster and toe, which are the major cause of uneven tire wear.

Not always the case, stock 16s are about 25.7" and 17s are 25.3" to where the most common tire on a 20" is a 245/35/20 with a diameter of around 26.7"

my rear settled bout 1/4" more than a week after install.
my mechanic is always eyeing my caster/toe to get as close to spec.
