The alignment is not needed every 5k miles. But you need an alignment I believe soon before or after installation to prove that your alignment is good. A bad alignment will chew up tires very quickly.
I usually go to a local shop that mounts my wheels and tires. They always do an excellent job and it is the same tech that does every car that comes in. I've had a bad experience with large chain tire stores scratching my wheels. I also prefer to just rotate tires myself as its more convenient to do it at home.
