Hey guys, I just recently got some new rims and tires on my car. I went from 17x7 stock Si rims on 215/45/17s to 18x7.5 215/35/18s. My alignment is now off after the install. I'm pulling a fair amount to the right now.

I assume this is obviously due to the new rims/tires. They came mounted and balanced already upon ordering.

Is it normal for this type of chance to potentially throw off alignment?

Would you recommend going to Honda only for alignments? or will Gateway do just as well? Theres a significant price difference.

Sorry for the noobish question, never had this particular instance occur before.
