Well, how often do you ride with a mis-aligned rim versus how many times do you activate your brakes? Would you continue to drive on a car with warped rotors that shudders at every stop? You need to set up your equipment to operate within the parameters and conditions you face the most. I'm not going to add a 1000-gallon gas-tank to the back-seat of my car because "someday" I may want to drive cross-country non-stop. How many times will the OP use his brakes before getting a wheel that's out of true?

The OP's goal and result is to have the pads hit his rims simultaneously. The best solution is to find the cause of the problem and solve it. Not just to put up with it and ride with it as is because "someday", he might need to deal with a wobbling wheel. Possible causes:

- missing plastic holders for spring-ends
- incorrectly aligned plastic holders (not symmetrical)
- bent-spring from previous hacks hitting it with a punch
- too-long/short cable housing? Is pushing/pulling on one side of the brake
- centre-bolt locknut too tight? There are bearings between caliper arms and having the locknut too tight can bind one or both arms
