I appreciate this answer and I also felt exactly the same way. I'm going to just pay for the mounting. Thanks!
I edited my post while you were replying — what did the dealer quote you for mounting plus alignment? What about mounting only?
Mounting should only be roughly 200 bucks. Alignment is somewhere around 300
Seattle quoted me 50 an axle for mounting. It's a very quick job. They didn't suggest alignment over the phone. I'm only considering going with their service because I don't have a QuickJack yet and the weather is really turning.

If the dealer is pushing alignment, I would ask them to measure it with the new set mounted and give you the printout so you can see spec vs measurement and decide from there.

My suspicion is suspension won't need it for the ~5 months winter rubber is required.
