How many miles do you plan to drive before you get it aligned? If we're talking 10 miles, no that won't hear out your tires. But I wouldn't go 50 miles without expecting some excessive wear. Oh yeah... the rest of the world uses km not miles :P

I'd say it's okay for short trips around town, but try not to drive if you don't have to.
