Default 2002 s60 t5 alignment problems

new member here.. have been into S60's for last 7 years and have owned my 2nd s60 for the last 2 years. My first s60 was a 2.4t automatic. I have a t5m now.

I am hoping the problem here is the alignment shop themselves and not the car.

Car has BC coilovers all around. tire rods and balljoints are tight. stab. links have little play.

Shop did alignment but I noticed car pulls to the right a little (not as much as before). went back and they tried it again (noticed left side was off) and said there are issues with my spring and shocks (bs as they are only a year old). Springs are in good shape and shocks are nice and tight.

Anyway, I got my money back from them as the car is sitll pulling to the right. Have others ran into issues with alignment on lowered S60's before? The car is lowered about 2 inches if I am not mistaking (there is about 2 fingers gap between tires and fenders). Tires are 235 40 17 - 17" stock Volo T5 rims.

Just for ***** n giggles put the rear tires on the front and see if the same pull is there. I had a pull one time after alignment. I changed tires and the pull was gone. I cant remember why?

Did they give you a print out of the alignment angles?
