Congratulations on the new baby.
As far as going to Discount tire over a
dealer for alignments, please, don't insult me.
It is always possible that any shop can not do as good of a job as another shop but you will always consistently get better work from a dealership. If you have bad luck with one, don't assume the rest are that way.
Now as far as the reason this thread was started in the first place, about 30% of all h2's have the rf tire rub from day one. It is doubtfull that aligning it made it worse, it is likely that you just didn't notice it until then. The real problem has nothing to do with the front wheel alignment. If you look at your sway bar, you will notice it is not centered properly. There is more sticking out on the rh side than the left.
To correct it, loosen up your 4 10mm bolts that hold the sway bar to the frame, take a pry bar and scoot the bar over some so it is centered better, then tighten it up. A little spray white lithium grease in the bushings will help it slide through the bushings easier. It shouldn't take you more than 10 minuites to do.
And for anyone who thinks that Discount tire is better than a dealership, take your truck up there and see if how long it takes them to fix it.
