How's my alignment look?



my camber is off as much as yours, doesnt do anything really.... except my toe is still within specs.
 
So the camber doesn't need to be fixed? I'll probably fix the toe myself, the steering wheel is off also. They told me I needed slotted struts or a special kit to get the camber correct. My Camaro SS was different, camber was fixed no problem.
 
slotted struts yes. but that camber is fine. im around -1.9/-2.0 as well and i dont wear out the tires any worse. toe needs to get fixed, itll eat tires.
 


Ok I will just fix the toe tomorrow and call it a day. My current tires are junk though so I'm not worried about the camber.
 
Oh and is it bad that my steering rack squeaks turning either way? I never got vibrations but the squeak definitely developed from lowering.
 
I got a squeek after lowering when steering one way at very slow speeds. It eventually went away. I attribute it to the spring turning in the insulator.
My rear camber is in the 2 range but my front is within spec
 
dude if that's on an alignment rack and they were attempting to give you an alignment that **** is whack.

you do not need to run all the jazz. put the front at 1* and the rear at 1.5* of camber, run ZERO toe. caster you can't adjust without modifying the chassis.
 
I'm positive that my rack is causing the squeaking. The boots might just be rubbing on something. And I'm just going to fix the toe myself and call it good.
 


Well actually I'm just going to leave it how it is. The toe is only off 0.06* between the front 2 tires, if my steering wheel is turned a little bit, the wheels are straight. It doesn't bother me much.
 
But technically, the shop had my steering wheel straight, so the toe is really only off 0.03* on each side if the wheels are pointed straight (steering wheel may be a bit off but it's ok). Not sure about the rear though, looks like it'd be a ***** to get those wheels straight.
 
you're toe'd out on every wheel on the entire car. you're going to feather all the tires to death and the car will never handle how it's supposed to.

ZERO toe on every corner with 1-1.5* of camber on every corner (evened out side/side).

get toe to zero. and your caster is off by more than 0.5 of a degree

having more or less caster will just help/hurt handling, but not effect tire wear.
 


I do agree toe shoul be zero. There is NO reason why they shouldn't have done it to begin with. You need to take it back as say hey wtf are you doing.
 
LOL guys, he told me before he did anything that they'd need to use the camber bolts or whatever. After he said that, I decided to not do anything so I left. He didn't say it couldn't be done. He said they could adjust the toe on all 4 corners for $75, seemed pricey so I said nah.
 
I bought the Firestone lifetime. Completely worth it. Only 200 bucks and you get unlimited times of alignment. I've already had it in there 3 times which more than pays for it
