I typically get an alignment when I get new tires. But you don't have to if you didn't mess with the suspension. If you haven't had an alignment in over a year, doesn't hurt to get one anyways so your new tires are wearing evenly.

Update us on how the YK580s are after some time. I've been curious about those tires myself.

Wheel/tire size does not affect alignment.

So far they are awesome. Very smooth and quiet when driving on them. Of course you hear some road noise just cuz im on 45/40 low profile tires but that comes with the territory. After having them on for 2 days, i love them. Exactly what i wanted in terms of ride quality, quietness, and comfort. I would recommend them. Plus they are a 580 treadwear. So you know it will last for a long time.

I just bought the same rims. My car is Graphite Shadow (KAD) so I'm trying to decide if I should stick with the stock color (silver) or go with a darker color. Does anyone have pics of a KAD car with dark rims (maybe gunmetal or black chrome) - painted or powder coated?

Anyone who has the 19 x 9s on the front have issues with rubbing or when full turning? I like the look of the 19 x 9s and am debating on getting them all around.

I run the YK580s on my wife's Honda Pilot and they are the best tires I've found for it yet...I actually purchased them back when they were exclusive to Discount Tire and were the best price/performance on the market.

Definitely not a sticky performance tire, but a good well rounded tire to say the least and the wear has been excellent after about 25k miles.

You'll be fine w/ the fit of the 19x9s all around, the offset is like +45, I'd stick w/ a tire no wider than a 255 though.

I have 19"x9" all around with 245/40 tires. No rubbing. I am considering spacers to make them completely flushed.

Any pics of the fitment? I'm thinking the 19 x 9s are as flush as I'll be going.

Right now I switched to stocks for winter. Here are some old pictures.

Seems like a lot of trouble. Find two clean sets priced well. Then try to find a buyer for a non staggered set of fronts... and make enough off them so you're not losing any cash in the process.
