Need a Check over ?

Morning All

 

Now have the 20/25mm spacers fitted to the 18" Rays ( swapped from 17" OEM)

 

Car generally seems ok no steering wheel vibration but had a few instance where the car seems to want to drift to the left. The wheel have weights on themn so not sure if balancing is car specific or wheel specific

 

As I'm a total noob as regards swappinmg wheel sizes - would be normal practice to get a an alignment check/wheel balance ?

Get an alignment check for good measure I'd say. Neither will cause issues, but they could show up pre existing issues more than before. Wheel balancing is for the wheel and tyre combo not the car so should be fine. A decent tyre place should only charge a few pounds to re balance the wheels if it would put your mind at rest

sound like an alignment issue to me, or maybe with the wider track and lower profile tyres, they're just tramlining a bit more. check the pressures as well, might be a slow flat on the front left which is pulling the car to the left.
