What did they use to align? Strings and lasers? LOL

No, seriously though, the last time I got an alignment, the alignment guy told me that left and right should perfectly match. Slightest change can make a huge difference in wear and drivability. 'Cause for the longest time I had wear problems. My car went through 4 tires in 1 year.

SO, I should have it re-aligned. Ill look for a better shop than the local chains, I was running on limited time.

Are stock numbers ok or should I be asking for something else.

The alignment guy should be the judge of that, depending on your ride height and wheel specs. Stock alignment is a huge bracket so it shouldn't be an issue.
