Swapping new rims back with my old ones??

I had the old 14" rims with hubs and bought some nice 17" racing rims. Now I am doing this delivery jobe part-time and don't want to wear down my expensive Toyo tires or add tto the risk of blowing one out. I want to put my stock rims back on my car every other week, what problems could occur if any, by doing this? Will my allignment mess up or anything?

I don't think you would have a problem doing that, with moving back to Oregon I want to have summer and winter rims so I will be using my Factory 15 in in the winter and the 17 inch Enkei in the summer.

But I don't see a problem

I'm thinking of doing the same thing, to save the tread on my tires as well. Hopefully the alignment doesn't get messed up too.

Simply changing the wheels isn't going to mess with the alignment. Only thing that is gonna happen is getting sick of changing them.
