      Where the wheels end up. If they were at full lock I would probably bring them back but that is unlikely unless street parking.

        Always straight. In every situation.

        I agree with the guys who talked about incurring more damage due to having turned wheels. Saw it a few times while I lived in San Diego. You can add suspension damage to your list of issues in certain cases.

          At work I park with the top of the wheel turned to 6:00 so it's less hot at the end of the day, since my space faces the sun.

              Wheels straight, unless on a hill with a curb then I park with them turned a bit so as to prevent the car from careening down the hill should something go drastically wrong and the gearbox/parking brake fail.

              Steering wheel always straight though. Can't stand a steering wheel cocked off.

                Straight on. The only reason I would full lock park is if I had nice wheels and I'm doing a shoot.

                                I back into every spot or drive though, wheels ALWAYS straight unless on a steep hill.
