Default Im stumped????

Ok, so over the weekend I installed my new Tein Basics and everything went smoothly. I take my car in (EJ8) the next morning to get the alignment and my alignment guy says that my caster is off +.5 degrees on the driver side front. Im like WTF? Im stumped because the car was just in there 3 weeks prior getting an alignment cause I had just installed my Wicked Tuning camber kit and everything was put right into spec with that alignment. I havent hit any pot holes, wrecked anything, etc. during that time, so I don't see why anything could be bent. Is +.5 degrees anything to be worried about? I dont have the slightest idea of where to look! I know that I need some new tires soon, but I have some vibration in the steering at about 70mph on the freeway. It wasnt there before the new install. Could bad caster cause vibration in the steering? Can someone please chime in and tell me where I need to start looking? Thanks....
