Steering wheel off center
I got new tires on Saturday. After I got in the car and started driving, I noticed the steering wheel was not centered, it was pointing to the 10-11 o'clock position. I have taken it off and adjusted it several times to no avail... Anyone got any ideas? BTW, the tie rods and ball joints were replaced back in December of last year. It was fine before putting the new tires on. Is it possible that when the new tires were put on something was knocked out of alignment?
I don't see how that is possible, though. It still drives straight, it is just that the steering wheel is off center and it bugs me, because I like everything to be straight...

Alignment, plain and simple, and if you took the wheel off the splined hub and didn't mark the original position it's going to be off for good. No alignment shop I know of will properly align it then position the steering dead center so the wheel will be straight. It just takes to long. They'll automatically align it with the wheel in the straight position, which hopefully isn't far enough off the leave you with tire wear issues.
