an alignment only measures the angle of the outter face of the rim. ride height and rim size dont matter. and caster is measured because the sensor is locked at a 90* angle from the ground. caster sweeps are unaffected by ride height and tire size as well.

*edit*

and now that I think about it, the only thing tire size affects is scrub radius and bump steer ( I think ). lowering the car does change the steering angles, but when you're doing an alignment, most of the time the car is out of spec anyway, so that wouldnt matter.
