How bad?

Final readings:

left front: right front:
caster +8.88 +9.04
camber -1.40 -1.80
toe +1/16 +1/16


left rear: right rear:
camber -2.44 -2.28
toe +1/16 +1/16

total toe:
front +1/8
rear +1/18

 

You went to toe out?

 

well, it was aligned before - but i put new springs in... so the dood suggested that

 

you need toe in to keep from feathering(supossedly). you need a total toe in of .08(in) or .2*in the front....your camber is pretty heavy too, probably handles nice but will eat up your inner tire edges pretty quik, unless you requested that purposely for track duty...........

camber is bad in front and rear? don't want to buy new $1,000 tires again

 

yes, your camberis a tad heavy on the negative side. fronts arent too bad but herears are over 2* neg. this will eat your inner tires fast. since you lowered it you might need rear camber arms to get it back in spec thats what i did. i even run less aggressive camber than factory to save my $1000 tires.........

if you lower any more than .8 inches you will have camber problems. its a matter of how much its off and how much you want to spend to correct the problem. front camber components are not cheap.....and neither are your tires

 

heck, none of the front or rear components were cheap but together they were less than a new set of tires! i look at it like this: suspension parts purchased once for full life of tires or unevenly wear your expensive tires & replace frequently forever!

depends on your wallet i guess.........
