Just did my alignment for honda. Shop uses Hunter system @ Tire Shah Alam.
only front wheels.

Balancing : RM10 per tire
Normal alignment : RM30
Camber adjust PER wheel (already have camber nut) : RM30
+ SST and tax

Is your steering wheel pointing straight ahead at 12 o'clock position as you drive on a straight road?

After alignment, it should be straight. some caveats. Honda CRV (4th gen) and vellfire (not sure which year model), even though alignment has been done, will still pull to one side after alignment.

Of course the alignment mechanic can adjust it to 'counter' pull, to make it nicely straight. But will have more wear and tear.

Thanks for responding.

Vehicle pulling (or drifting) to either side after paying for a wheel alignment job is always a *misalignment* in itself, often disguised by incompetent local practitioners as 'normal and that's the way it is' .

It's not true that an adjustment 'countering' the vehicle pull would cause increased tyre wear.

It appears to me this Shall Alam alignment shop is just like any other incompetent practitioners commonly found in local market, as I'd encountered.....sighhhh...

Not sure how much exp you have, but if you send a few cars for alignment and fix/maintain your car with your own hands, then you will know better.
