Default Do I need an alignment?

Here is what I'm doing...Its getting colder in NY, so its time to put my winter tires. Right now I'm on 19's and I've had two alignments done so far. In a few weeks, I will be putting on my OEM 18's w/ winter tires. The question is, do I need to get an alignment again? As I understand, as long as I don't mess with the suspension my alignment should be fine?

Thanks in advance!

dude definatly u dont need it. Even if its off, its winter snow,ice u can mess up ur wheel aligment easily in the winter. My personal advice ride out the winter with winter tires then switch back to regular rims u were using and if the aligment is off then get the aligment done.
