Wonky Steering Wheel
When my wheels are straight the steering wheel sits very off center too the right, so today I took the wheel off to put it back on so its straight.
But it still doesn't sit straight, I got it closer to the middle but its off center to the left. As its a Hexagon shape that the wheel goes onto.. not a spline so can't make small adjustments.
Its a XR2i and the factory steering wheel, with 15" TSW Stealth alloys.

he said get the tracking done properly
but yeah if its not that u got something bent, use somewhere with laser tracking if poss but imo the accuracy is only as good as the person checking/adjusting it. and if your wishbones are shot best to replace them first or it will never be accurate

Will go to A14 Tyres, its a local place that do a discount for the local 'modified' cars.
Also need to get my exhaust refitted as its blowing, where its been badly fitted by some idiot.. which they will be able to sort out hopefully.
