IHMO any time you change suspension components, you should have the vehicle professionally aligned.

I agree with Joe. I get my alignment checked every year to make sure all is right with the suspension & so I get even tire wear.

You might consider pushing your strut towers inward to get a neutral camber angle. Mine are at 0 and the tires wear flat, very little outside tire wear.

Push them a little more toward negative .5 deg. and increase your handling!

i changed out the backs the other day took like 20 minutes the fronts are a bit more involved b/c i dont remove the rotors todo it. I will do the fronts when new tie rods are replaced (may) for inspection.
