Hey guys. I recently bought the hankook rs-2s (205/55/16F and 245/45/16R) on my stock wheels ('03 S2000) and got an alignment done at the local honda specialist. I got a printout of the alignment specs before and after (I'll post them up as soon as I can but I'm on break right now ) and all of the specs that they aligned my car to are in spec with the requirements from Honda for my car. Most of them are right on with the nominal settings. As I was driving my car home (I did not get a chance to sit in the car while it was being aligned because I have to work) I noticed that my steering wheel is a little off-center. It is approx. 3-7 degrees off center towards the right. That is an approximation seeing as how I broke my protractor last semester . If all of the alignment specs are good, why is the steering wheel off center? Is it that important for me to sit in the car while they are doing it? If it matters to the suspension and the problem, I am 5'5" and 150lbs.

 

Take it back and have them realign the steering wheel. The steering wheel center is independent from the wheel alignment.

 

Cool Thanks

 

How difficult is it for them the center the steering wheel? How much time would it take the average mechanic?

 

happened to me too....sometimes it slips from the brace. Just take it back, its a 5 minute job.

 

I learn so much on this website. haha. thanks guys
