Default Clocked a curb

What a DS! Hit the median at about 40mph, not head on- I was parallel to it, and swerved into it- won't go into why... Curb shot on both driver's side rims (17" summer chrome). Steering wheel off center, but not too much pull.

Anyway, took it to alignment shop this am and the tech was able to adjust toe and camber back to spec, but the caster on the left side is about 1.6 degrees off, and not adjustable. Steering wheel is mostly centered, and car drives ok- anyone see this as a problem? Tire wear, etc? Rims scratched but might provide a good excuse for an upgrade...
