I am currently running 245/40/18. Planning on running 215/60/17 in the winter. Will I need an alignment when changing tires? Does camber/caster/toe change at all when changing tire diameters?

These are the differences in inches.

Width -1.18" (-30.00mm)
Sidewall height +1.22" (+31.00mm)
Overall height +1.44" (+36.60mm)
Circumference +4.53" (+114.98mm)

215/50 17 are a lot closer to your original tire size unless you got a deal on the size you mentioned.

As far as the alignment, not needed.
