Wheel Alignment specs needed (daystar)

I am installing my Daystar kit in my 04 lariat Super Crew 4X4. I was told to need to get the wheel specs to re-align my front end. If not my dealership said it would take a couple of hours to properly align the front wheels.

Does anybody have the wheels specs for the front end??

Thanks in advance.

Jay.
