Usually when you purchase new tire you get an alignement done,but that's my
vision of things.
If you buy "budget" tires i guess it is not really necessary but if you buy
expensive ones(like i do) you get it aligned.

Good luck!

P.S. if you get an alignement make sure everything is tight and
sound(bearings,bushings,tie rod,ball joints)if not,they wont do it.You will
have to get that fix before.
