I'm getting new tires for my 2007 95 and wondering if I should also include
front and rear wheel alingment. Having bought this car with 95000 miles I don't know if it was ever done. Thoughts ???

Rear comber is adjusted using shims behind the hubs

or adding an adjustable cross-stay

Do not pay for 4 wheel alignment for the rear has NO adjustment, although it could tell you how far off it is
The 9-5 has negative rear camber but if it beyond spec you will get inside edge wear and could lead to cupping and can be adjusted as above

Your front suspension has struts and have no adjustment for camber and caster, only toe. The rear axle has no adjustment. You should have the toe checked because it could be out of adjustment due to an accident, pot holes, etc and toe affects the steering (does the vehicle wander?), handling and tire wear of the vehicle.
There is camber adjustment up front. Camber bolt holes are slotted. You can use camber adjustment bolts. If it is far out, you can grind the slots out more.
