Default Swapping Wheels with different offsets

Guys will i need to have an alignment done when I install wheels with a different offset. The new wheels will sit flush with the fender vs the stock offsets which land the wheel on the inside of the fender. My intuition says yes but just wanted to confirm. Thanks

I don't think it will have a significant impact on handling or tire wear. I suspect that the wheels will still be within tolerances unless there is already an alignment problem.
