^It's one of two things.

1. The alignment is out of spec

2. Alignment is in spec. After installation of an aftermarket steering wheel, you just didn't get it notched perfectly in the center.

drive the car without a steering wheel? then just bolt everything back up when you feel that everything is straight?

no you drive with steering wheel on but leave the bolt that holds the wheel loose then when its straight you tighten the bolt right then and there you will have to take airbag off for this
