Just put on RPF1 - question

The 18x8 RPF1s have a 35mm offset, so they stick out 15mm compared to the stock wheels. That's an additional 30mm of track. The steering feels a bit less on center and seems to wander a little on some uneven roads now.

I don't think an alignment is necessary after pushing out the offset is it?
