Default Anyone with an NRG short hub on an EG

Is it just me or is it IMPOSSIBLE to get the hub to line straight up? My car was left perfectly straight, and I put on the short hub as straight as possible but the wheel ended up being a little crooked to the left. Then I took off the hub and moved it a little to the right, and now the steering wheel is crooked to the right when the wheels are actually straight. It seems like there is no happy medium and I wanted to see if others could get their wheels perfectly straight with the NRG short hub?

i have done this many times and never had a problem with it lining up. when is the last time you had an alignment? thats the only reason why your wheel wouldnt be strait.

I had an alignment a year ago. I doubt my alignment is off. Makes no sense, my wheels are perfectly straight, I put on the hub perfectly straight. Then when I start driving the wheel goes a little crooked to the left when I am driving straight. But it doesn't move around when I stop. Therefore, I don't think its my alignment.

it doesnt matter, as soon as you drive out of the parking lot from getting an alignment your car goes out of alignment.

shops only guarantee the alignment until it is driven off the lot.

Did you roll the car back and forth to make sure the wheels/tires were actually straight. When I do my alignment in my garage you have to take out the friction of the tires on the ground. Even if the steering wheel is straight there can be a little bit of bind in the tires/wheels.
