Got an alignment done

Post image

After the new tires got put on I figure I'd have my alignment checked... And it was way off. Here's the before and after. Did I screw up asking for zero toe? I've heard zero toe is a good balance of aggressive and daily driving, so I went with it.

My front toe is set to -0.5mm each side and it makes the front end feel alive. 0 feels okay, but a bit too numb for my liking.

How's the tire wear?

Factory has a little more toe in than that IIRC, it helps with stability at speed and most people don't like how "floaty" zeroed toe can feel (especially on manual rack cars). It's not enough to make a difference in tire wear really. Also, standard rubber bushings can deflect enough to change more than that anyways under accel/braking

Good to know - appreciate your drain! I'll check the last assignment numbers and have a chat with my mechanic!

I'm surprised you don't have more camber than that stock. It's usually closer to -1.25° from factory.

Yeah i thought it was a little odd too, but it's fine.
