Default Alignment Variations

1995 4dr 4wd Blazer.
I have done a torsion crank of about 1" and installed 31x10.5r15 tires and aligned to factory specs. It drove way better with factory size tires and factory alignment specs. Has anyone noticed that the caster angle needs to be set higher than factory to account for the wider tires? I've been setting it to the 3* or whatever but it still likes to wander down the road.

The guy I bought them from had them on a Blazer also so I figured they were correct. I'll have to check that next time I have a wheel off.
