Thanks guys...my car still drives a straight line with no pull to either side. Should I still get an alignment?

If no irregular wear evident on tires, no need for alignment.

Me too. And, no alignment. If it goes straight and steering wheel does not move side to side on its on, then alignment should be OK.
