You are probably correct. I just like to make sure everything on my truck is aligned after I've messed with anything on the front end. I've burned up a few tires on other trucks in the past

Like I mentioned, my tires are really expensive and I can't afford to be replacing them that often.

Put them on, drive down the road and see if it goes straight. if it does you're probably good

With all that said, your truck is going to look like even more BAD *** with those spacers on there.

Not Bora, but they are hub-centric. 1.5"

Same here. I bought a set of Bora 1.5" spacers. Then after I bought them decided to buy new wheels that have a 0mm offset. I might throw the spacers on when I lift it.

You don't need an alignment if you get spacers... they spin. If they're off, then they were built wrong and need to be replaced. Any alignment issues that arise from putting spacers on were already there before they were put on.

Scheduled the timing job for next Wednesday first thing in the AM! Hope it all goes smooth and I have the truck back on Friday so I can install the new radio and take her for a short hour long road trip to test the new phasers!
