I currently have 33x12.50x15 Duratracs with a Level kit, and will be going back to stock wheels and tires 255/70/18 and level kit is staying, do I need an alignment when I do this? The jeep drives fine now no problems..... thanks

You may have to center the steering wheel thats it.

You think so? I was thinking it through when you posted. I'm thinking no though. The distance from the axle to the pitman arm won't change by tire size. (unless the OP is also removing the lift)??

If removing the leveling kit then you will have to adjust the drag link to center the steering wheel, if it's just changing wheels/tires no adjustment will be needed.
