Default Alignment Question

I recently lowered my car with Eibach Pro Kit Springs and installed a TRD Rear Sway Bar
Also got two new Kumho AST 18in Tires in the Rear
I went to the local tire shop and had an alignment done. When i picked it up i asked for a printed sheet and they didn't print one but said the alignment went fine and everything was to spec.

I do not know if it is just me but my Rear left tire looks off. I am not sure if it tires or possible bent rim. Or me just being obsessive. I am going to bring it back and have them redo the alignment. I just wanted some thoughts.

The only thing that can be adjusted on the xB2 with an alignment is the front toe.

From another thread:

The issue with the xB solid rear axle is this. When you lower the xB, the rear axle rolls forward.
Now turning your camber into toe. There is no camber shims for it at all out there as I know of.
I have the same issue on mine. Mine is off some. I just keep swapping the tires inside out every couple thousand miles.

Good eye.
I hadn't noticed the taillights until I looked more closely after your comment.

I didn't even scroll the bigbut picture over to see that.
He posted in the tC forum also, so I guess a mod can lock this one up now.
