Keep in mind the gauge cluster is tilted to the left off-axis. It's normal the wheel doesn't line up with it.

Hi guys I switched my wheels and that sorta did the trick for me, it’s off center by a little. I got an alignment and it helped for a little bit I think the problems are with my tires, maybe I can get them rebalanced or inspected.
I also have my alignment sheet if anyone knows the factory specs or can help with that. Cheers

Upload the print out so we can have a look. The OEM specs are posted on the forum for comparison, but your printout should have those as well.

I’ve also found the CTR is pretty sensitive to roads. The steering is very tight with little dead zone so I find myself doing corrections often versus regular cars and SUVs.

Anyone else agree ?

Just realized you have an SI and not Type R, not that it matters but it makes more sense as to why more people are not replying on here.

Before and after readings you posted look dead on to me and are within the norms. How is the wheel placement? Dead on center? Any irregular tire wear? Your before toe measurements were certainly off, that should have made a big difference after correction.

I owned a 2018 si for about 10 months, it never pulled on me one bit on flat roads.

I Had a similar issue. Got an alignment done and everything's straight but still pulled. When I changed my tires it drove perfectly straight.

Ill try to change my tires and hopefully that will fix the issue, and I will also ask to inspect rims, and if the tires are good ill just ask to balance them once more.

Thank you guys!

UPDATE:
A couple years later, however the issue was a bent rim at the time.
Thank you for the support.
