Default steering off after drop

hi guys sorry about the newbish q but im just wondering if it is normal to have the steering wheel a little off center after a drop i am definitely going to get an alignment as soon as possible im just waiting for the springs to settle all the way. im not really driving it anyway so its just sitting in my garage til i take it to an alignment shop. also, i took it on a short test drive and noticed it pulls a little to the right. im sure it will get all cleared up after an alignment, im just checking with you guys to make sure i didnt screw anything up. the install on the gf210s went smoothly. btw i also installed the spc rear cmaber kit with the toe bolts.

are you using stock struts? the springs shouldnt mess up your alignment that much, but you did install parts for the rear camber and toe correct? so more than likely its just your rear alignment that is off. Always make sure you have correct/even tire pressure when checking alignment also.
