You got a shop to do the alignment the way you desired, AND to center it? Most places I've taken cars to for alignment just get it "within specified range" even if that range goes some to either side of zero and they have one side positive and one side negative.

If alignment techs put in the effort to get it RIGHT the first time they would have far fewer come backs for poor handling.

Another problem is shops that will do an adjustment even when worn parts make it impossible to get it accurate or for the adjustment to stay. The shop you took yours to shouldn't have done a thing to the rear alignment until you got the worn parts replaced or had them replace them.
