No, you roll it back and fore to even out the stresses on the tyre after =
making any adjustment.  That is standard practice when using =
professional alignment equipment, not just home-use kit that started =
this thread.  When you lift the tyres off the ground and lower it again, =
the tyres touch the ground when the suspension is fully extended.  The =
suspension then proceeds to compress until it is taking the full weight =
of the car.  There is no telling what stresses will develop between tyre =
and ground, and hence be applied to all the steering and suspension =
components, during the compression process.
