Default Stupid alignment question

I'm about to put some new wheels on my C3. I'm using the same tires that have been on the car. Just mounting them to the newer wheels.

Do I need to get another front and rear realignment after changing to the newer wheels?

No alignment, but see if they can hide the weights on the inside of your new rims.

Yes Sir. I had to order some spacers to clear the brake calipers. Thanks for the input.
