Alignment Issue
So I just got some new wheels tires about a week ago and I just was able to get an alignment done yesterday.
When I put the new wheels/tires on, the car pulled a little to the right so I new that it definitely did need an alignment. Previously, I had steelies with hubcaps and the car drove straight with no problem.
Now after the alignment, my car pulls to the right significantly worse. Nothing too intense, but no doubt more than it was before the alignment.
I called about 15 minutes ago, and the guy said it's most likely something wrong with my car because it's lowered
and it suggested things like motor mounts, or something else.
I took a picture of the scanout, so I can get some suggestions. Is there anything wrong with the way they have my suspension setup? Thanks for any insight

Please take another picture in better light, with macro setting on if you have a point-n-shoot camera (little flower symbol on most of them). I can't make out most of that printout at all, especially the rear wheel readings.
Sorry about that, my camera phone's not the best...

It doesn't make sense that they didn't zero or match each toe for the front and rears, even if they are in acceptable range they should atleast be the same in my opinion. Try switching the front tires if it pulls to the other side it might be a tire, if the side wall construction is off it will not roll straight. Lowering the car shouldn't make much of a difference.
The only thing I don't like about the alignment would be your camber difference from front to rear. The toe angles were more than acceptable, if not excellent to compensate for the driver.
It would have just been easier if you just typed it all out instead of having a ton of pictures though, kind of irritating.
The front to rear bias for camber angles should be something between .5-1.0 degree difference with the front angle more negative than the rear.

shoot! i have the same problem right now. i just swapped my stockies with 205/60/15 for some buddyclub p1 racing 205/50/15 and now my car is steering off to the left badly. gosh i know i need an alignment but damn!!!! this is ridiculous i was hoping it was the tire pressure but after checking them out still no fix. im debating whether i should get an alignment or not, dont wanna do it unless it fixes the problem, fyi its stock height too
hope u get that fix..i remember when i had a bad alignment on one of my cars my steering was going sideway and the car was pulling to the right the same time..i was ridein like that for awhile til i can afford a aligment..crazy
