Yes, most definately get the front end aligned first thing after replacing the struts - even driving a few miles can begin to ruin the tires if the alignment is off much. To get the alignment close mark the mounting position of the old struts before removing them and re-install them as close as possible to the original position (mark with a felt pen, marks-a-lot, chalk, etc.). Then drive immediately to the closest alignment shop that is reputable.

Good Luck!
Tom
