Default Alignment Specifications

Does anyone have the factory specifications for a wheel alignment for 2011 997.2 turbos that they can post. I had 4 new tires mounted and an alignment done last year and the car very slightly veers to the right which may be the result of the contour of the street. The steering wheel is very slightly off center/balance to left. This was not happening before .

While I don't have factory specs for the 997.2, I always insist they get my steering wheel straight when they align my .1 to a GT2 style alignment spec. Some alignment techs have suggested a bias for heavy highway driving to alleviate the crowning of the roads, but I have always gone for a straight up follow the specs I give you approach.

You should:

1. Go back and get them to straighten the steering wheel
2. Ask them about any bias they baked into the setup

If you have the printout of what they did, you might want to scan/post it so others can see if they spot any obvious issues.

Attached are the wheel alignment specifications. Are they the correct specifications? And are they the probable cause for the symptoms?
