I am going to be swapping to AP2 wheels on my 2003. I am going to get brand new star specs mounted and balanced on the wheels. My only questoion is do I also need an alignment as well since the wheel is bigger? I been reading around on google with mixed responses.

If you had a proper alignment before the wheels were swapped then you don't need one after the swap, the wheels won't affect suspension geometry. If you don't know your alignment settings I'd do one to preserve the tires on the new setup though.

Current tires have a normal wear pattern, and car does not pull. Good to know thanks.
