Question Alignment issue with new tires

Hi guys,

It is about time to have the original BridgeStone Potenza RE030 tires to be replaced
with S-03 after initial 20.6K miles of usage.
Do I need to have the 4 wheels alignment check
or serviced during the tire replacement ?

Any suggestion for a reputable tire installation/alignment shop in
the neighborhood of N. Orange county and LA county border area
of southern CA ?
What is the reasonable cost I should expect from them ?

Thumbs up

GS4Will,

Got my new tires installed last weekend in Cosco Chino Hill, CA.
The ZR17 Bridgestone S-03 94Y rated Summer tires are great !
Have not scheduel any alignment appointment yet !

I am kind of curious that Longo told me I did not need an alignment
from my last visit 6 months ago. (24 months no alignment issue)

I hear a lot of out of alignment issue on CL board last year.

Am I the lucky one or just too early to tell beofre the problem showns up ?
