Regardless of the likelihood of any of these, I still think it would be peace of mind to have the alignment checked with new rubber and before you set out for a long journey.
Hi,

Agree. You should always have a 4-wheel alignment done everytime you add new rubber, even if it's just to one axle. Misalignment on the other axle will affect the tire wear on the other...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
