As the the title states, I just replace the rear shocks, and front struts on my Z4, with 97k on the clock. The car drives well, and doesn’t seem to pull to one side or the other. Should I get an alignment?

If you changed front struts you definitely need a steering geometry check.

No. You are not altering anything on the steering or suspension geometry because the strut position is fixed both top and bottom.

Save your money!

At a lot of garages It costs nothing to check, they only charge if they have to adjust it.
