I just put in new toyota struts and my car is goin to the left, it was going straight before? Do you always have to align your car when you put in new struts?

Get the alignment done. You will eat up more in rubber than that alignment costs.

I chewed through my Toyo T1-S's in 6k when i didn't get the alignment done after having a strut mount replaced.
