Re-alignment needed after swapping wheels front to back.

I want to swap my wheels front to back in order to get equal wear from the tyres.

If I do this will I need to get the car re-aligned afterwards.

thanks

Simply swapping the wheels around does not alter the alignment at all, however the tyres will now need to scrub in to the different alignment settings that exist between front and rear.
