As for zeroing thrust angle, this can be achieved, but there is a spec range, and I think as long as it's in that range, it's effect on steering wheel centering may be negligible. I guess I should edit what I said earlier too, it's the angle off the geometric center of the car. Slight correction, sorry.

Now I understand what you mean SiDriver, and yes, just see if you can sit in the car and watch the wheel while your alignment is being done. I actually recently did a garage alignment and forgot to center the wheel... sure the car might've driven straight, but the wheel was at like 20 degrees clockwise!

Yea, I'm thinking that since the thrust angle is derived from the total toe, if each toe is within Honda's spec, the resulting possible extreme total toe values would have a negligible effect on steering wheel centering. I'm thinking 0.01 is very small.

Yea, hopefully this is just an "I forgot to perfectly straighten the steering before doing the alignment" issue.
