is it best to do it with stock wheels on so you wont have the chance of scratching your aftermarket wheels? that's what goodyear told me..


but i thought you're suppose to do alignment with the new wheels & tires...??

Do them with the wheels you intend to drive with. If the tech is careful and a pro, no scratches should happen. The most expensive-precious cars have to get alignments and their wheels don't get scratched.

With tire wear and off-sets, it's unlikely two different sets of wheels and tires will sit exactly the same.
