i don't know about the alighnmnet...

but, i am embarassed to admit, once, when i changed the wheels to the winter setup in Moscow, i had some handling issues along with the noise coming from the front left... as i came to my destination, and parked the car, i went around, looking for an issue, did not see anything but tried the lug bolts - sure enough, the front left were half way out!!! I tightened them up, and went around the car, making sure the other ones were ok... Major safety issue, due to my personal neglect!!!

Since then, I double make sure the lugs are tight, and when i take a car on a short errand, I re-tighten the lugs once more - just to be on the safe side...

I am glad you have resolved the issue
