Wheel change = alignment issues?
So i just recently took my winters off and put my summer wheels/tires back on my 8. They had just over 5000 miles on em, so I rotated them (front to back). It seems as though I now have some alignment issues, as every now and then I get a pretty significant pull to the left.
Is this something I should expect?
I was under the impression I wouldn't have to get my alignment checked every time I changed the wheels? I checked the tire pressure (the only thing my noob mind could think of) and its equal on both sides.
Any ideas?

it's probably just your tires tramlining if it's not continuous, summer tires have stiffer sidewalls and belts than winter tires which makes them less forgiving to pavement surface variations

could be tramlining you forgot about since you put on your winters...
what was the condition of the road (and your position on it) - also are these the stock potenza's?
you could always put your winter's back on to check the car's behavior (if the alignment is out of wack)
