alingment ?

I just got new tires and wheels today and I recently cranked my t bars to lift the front to match the rear in my 4runner and I know that since I cranked the t bars I need an alingment so the new tires don't wear unevenly. I will be getting bj spacers in the near future so I can relax the t bars and I will need more than one alingment and I am thinking about getting the lifetime from firestone. My question is will the t bars have to be relaxed now to get a proper alingment now before I get the spacers, just wondering if I will have to drive around with the front end low and the rear lifted until I get the spacers? Hopefully this makes some sense!

You should wait till you get the BJ spacers on that way you only have to pay for one alignment or at least that's how I would do it save yourself 70-100 bucks.

yeah I would but I don't have the money for the spacers for another month or two and it cost $60 for one alingment and I can get the lifetime for 100 right now and I dont want my new tires to wear funny!

Well for 40 bucks(100 total) you can afford the BJ spacers then wait to get it all together and get the lifetime but if your tires are that bad I guess then the lifetime would be the way to good.

If you waited this long for the tires why not get the bj spacers and wait a bit longer to get it all done and right in one day
