Yes it is because of the alignment.  Wheel spacers or a shallower backspaced wheel puts the correct leverage on the front end.

spacers are required to get an alignment.  adding them afterwards would defeat the purpose entirely.  The stock wheels do not provide enough leverage on the front arms/coils.
