uhm just get your toe fixed and just adjust camber to what you need. thats what i will be doing when i go in for my alignment tomorrow. just fixing toe and seeing my camber numbers

in-range specs for our cars are beyond what they need to be, so they wouldn't help.

as brad said, just get your toe fixed, near zero. That's what damages tires the quickest.

I have yet to see a 3 go wildly out of spec besides camber.
Heck, back when I dropped my car, only thing out of spec was camber. Front toe was increased negatively, but still within spec.. but fixed that anyways.

Cool thanks guts I'll deff look into the toe when I go in.

So I need to get my toe as close to "0" as possible?

[lax22pearl]

correct

Yeah best to take it to a shop ,like mine except you're acrOSS the country lol, and have them set rear camber and toe, the. Front camber and toe. Thats th order in which they need to be set. If camber is where you want it for the most part, have them equalize it so that your cross-camber is as close to 0 as possible. I.e. -4,-4 =0 on cross camber. That will ensure it drives straight, and also looks perfectly even. if you want exact factory specs let me know and I can look em up at work.

Lol actually perfectly 0 toe is what makes a car squirrelly.
But yeah.. Still want it near zero.

Otherwise pull out some fishing line and do it yourself! That's how its done.. Machines kinda make it faster though, but racing teams still use the string and ruler method.

Yes, i should've clarified. Thank you. perfect zero on toe on an alignment machine is the exact preset tolerance. Since fwd cars want to pull the front wheels forward, perfect toe is actually slightly negative, creating a straightening affect when in forward gears. Toe does not affect how a car drives unless it is EXTREMELY far out. Toe compensates itself as you drive essentially dragging the edge of the tire . Camber (front) and caster, which is only a front suspension angle will cause a car to pull, drift or like you said get squirlly. Which is a caster issue, too far negative.
