It's a good idea to get an alignment after you get a new set of tires on the car.

And lots of shops will give you a discount on the alignment when you have them install your tires as well.

you get your tires balanced and your car aligned. you should always get an alignment after you change anything dealing with suspension

At the minimum, get the alignment checked. If it needs realignment, then do it.
