Alignment question.
For those that are knowledgeable on alignment specs. Based on the attached sheet of an alignment I had done recently. The front toe showing on the left at 0.07 and the right at 0.05. Is this a big difference for a concern to have it be the same on both sides or does this seem to be within acceptable parameters?

As long as it's within spec, it's not important what the difference is.

I feel that to keep the car going straight seems less intuitive now that I have None RunFlat tires vs RunFlats. Feel like I have to make more minor corrections. Could it be a switch from RFT to None RFT?

I'm not an alignment expert. However, I've heard that some shops will intentionally put a slight pull to the side of the car where the road crowns to counteract the road's slight tendency to push toward the curb. So, given how different the tow was before (12 and 3) to how close it is now (7 and 5), maybe you are experiencing the absence of that setup?

Steering wheel wasn’t centered. Plus the front toe was off as well so it was needed.

No. Never hit potholes and even avoid manhole covers bumpkin the road etc.
