Question:

I'm upgrading the rim and tire sizes on my 2000SE from 16" to 17". The alignment is good for my 16's, will I need to get another alignment when I put on the 17's?

Thanks. Another question...are the alignment specs for a max with 16's different than one with 17's?

Any competent alignment place should have no problems.

Thanks again. Tie-rods in such should be OK. I had an alignment about 2,000 miles ago (with the 16's) and the car only has 16k pampered miles.

Thanks for the assist!
