im not alignment expert but I always thought wheel changes doesn't affect alignment?? If that's the case wouldnt most ppl do it when switching from summer to winter?

no alignment. if there is a negative effect from switching wheels tires i would suspect those first.

You would only need an alignment if your wheel circumference changes.
