Default Alignment?

Just got an alignment done about a month ago after I lowered my car. Now I have ordered 18x9.5 privat wheels to replace the factory zr1's and was wondering if I'm going to have to get another alignment done after I put the 18's on or will nothing change?

easy way to check is drive on flat ground take you hands off of the wheel hit the brakes, if it pulls to one side, I would recomend getting another one. spending 50 or 60 bucks compared to getting new tires is a no brainer especially for 18's. but that me and there might be people out there telling you it ok. it just comes down to what you want to do. but thats an easy way to tell if a car needs an alignment. good luck, those wheels are gonna look great.
