You didn't mention how many miles are on your car, but this slight "offset" can change as the tires break-in over the first few hundred miles. Also, this problem can be the result of tire pressure differences from side to side in the front. Check your tire pressures cold - first thing in the morning, for example, and make sure they are inflated to the specifications listed on the driver's door pillar. If the problem still needs to be corrected, steering wheel centering can be adjusted (by the dealer) at the tie rods (connection between the steering rack and the steering arm on the front struts) - one side is lengthed slighty, the other side is shortened by the same amount. Good luck!
