Got an alignment

My car has been pulling right for a week, so I took it in for an alignment this morning. It still pulls right a little bit. The tech said this was due to the camber being set to the right, and that he left it this way to avoid wearing out the front tires..

I got a computer printout after the alignment, and here are the specs. Are these settings good or is something outta wack still? I'll take it back if needed..

This is a DD by the way, don't need aggressive settings.

Thanks in advance!

Everything is in degrees (seems odd.. thought it would be mm or in).:

--Front left--
Camber: -0.8
Caster: 3.7
Toe: 0.08
SAI: 13.5
Included angle: 12.7

--Front right--
Camber: -0.7
Caster: 3.7
Toe: 0.06
SAI: 13.6
Included angle: 13.0

--Front--
Cross camber: -0.1
Cross caster: 0
Cross SAI: -0.2
Total toe: 0.14


--Rear left--
Camber: -0.9
Toe: 0.12

--Rear right--
Camber: -1.0
Toe: 0.1

--Rear--
Cross camber: 0.1
Total toe: 0.22
Thrust angle: 0.01

That tech doesn't sound all that knowledgable. The car shouldn't pull right. Something isn't right.

For a daily driver, here are some good settings. Front camber -1.5*. Rear camber -1.0*. Toe should be set to 0 all around. The toe setting from the factory is what eats up your tires.
