Get an alignment.

-edit- sorry, didn't read to end of your post, had an interruption. Keep in mind that the vehicle will handle differently, and may be unsafe in certain situations. There will also be a lot of stress on some suspension components.

You'll need the alignment, most definitely, before the new tires, so best to get it asap.

If they are "leaning" in at the top, this is called Camber. How far are they leaning?

Re: just installed 4.5 inch lift and now wheels toe in towards top

allright so i bit the bullet and took it in. the surprising thing is that they stated that there was no camber issue; however the specs call for 0.05 degrees of toe in, and on one wheel it came out to 3.27 degrees. that's a lot more if ya know math, so thanks for pushing me into going and getting it done. that's why i always ask you guys.
