Just got an alignment...how are these readings?

Just got my alignment redone...feels much better, but i'm curious to see how these readings are compared to others...Still kind of confused why my camber is different from left to right by .4*

Front Left Front Right
-1.1 Camber -1.5 Camber
3.1 Caster 2.9 Caster
.01 Toe .03 Toe

Rear Left Rear Right
-2.0 Camber -2.4 Camber
.05 Toe .06 Toe

Thrust Angle: 0.00
Steer Ahead: 0.01

the rear toe should be a little bit closer to zero, if not at zero... but other then that it looks ok

IMO- once the camber goes past negative 1.5 degrees and is at neg 2 degrees- you need to think about rear camber kit- 150$ plus 1 hour to install both sides
You will be putting some wear on the tires at the current setting
ON toe readings- the end result is the thrust angle- which is what we really care about being zero- thrust alignment is different at how it arrives at the conclusion

My 01 on tein ss does that same thing with camber- the car does not sit exactly level or weight equal on each corner- so camber is different. You can raise or lower a corner slightly to adjust it if more than .5 differance, otherwise just run it

OP- contact MrHeelToe or Excelerate for the rear camber kit, will require an alignment again, but thats way cheaper than tires
