Can I center the steering wheel myself?? Tireplus can't seem to handle it.
Hey Everyone,
I just got new tires on the ES and noticed the steering wheel was off center to the left. I had to drive back to college the next day and was telling myself that it was just in my head or from the curvature in the road. Well after an annoying 2 hour drive and confirming that it in fact was the steering wheel I decided to take it in under warranty.
The guy said "yea the other TiresPlus location really didn't center it well at all, but I fixed you up just right". Well the steering wheel is now too far off to the right.
It really takes away from the comfort and luxury of the car when you have a crooked steering wheel.
So I'm wondering if I should adopt the approach of: "If you want it done right you got to do it yourself", or if I should keep taking it back until they get it right.

I have the Measurement printout which the other place didn't give me:
The before front steer ahead was: .36* and the box is red
The after front steer ahead is: .01* and the box is green.
I wonder what it could be since on paper the steering should be perfect
