Default Lift is on!! should i wait for rims & tires to do alignment?

Just like the title says. I finally got my lift on (no power/air tools and no extra hand = PITA!!!!) and I was wondering if I should wait 'til I get my new rims and tires on to get an alignment. Any input is much appreciated.


P.S. Will post pics up as soon as new tires come in. Already have the rims, tires are just taking forever to get in. They are Super Swamper TSL's 32x10.5x15 and the rims are pro comp rock crawlers 15x8 with 3.75 backspacing...........just so you know what's coming.

But only if you are getting them soon. Don't wait a month if this is going to be driven alot.
