My steering wheel was a tad off center though before the alignment. Wondering what my next course of action should be...

Nothing special, just something to get me by. Pics soon!

Check the tie-rods, control arms, etc. Might not be visibly bent but could be slightly out of line.
-3.8 camber is a ton for factory settings though.

Yeah maybe it was reference to caster maybe? but stock the GRs should be around 5-6ish. Because that Perrin/Whiteline etc kit gives you like 7+ which I had.
I dunno Rob I don't think you have that much camber, or else
1)I would've noticed it before
2)You would have obnoxious amounts of camber wear since you daily more than push
3)It would look damn obvious to any car enthusiast that there's almost 4 degrees.

Could also be tech error in what he was reading off to him?
Stock GR numbers for camber are -.5/-.7 front, -1.3/-1.4 rear
