Alignment Analysis - Any thoughts?
Hey guys!
Been away from here for a bit, but just curious what you guys make of this alignment report.
I thought there were no rear adjustments that could be made - but I'm guessing I'm wrong (or was lied to).
Basically, my alignment was terrible - I knew it was, and didn't care. The tires that came with my car were at the end of their life - I knew I'd be replacing them soon.
15k miles later I just had a set of new DWS06 tires intsalled (they feel GREAT)!
I found the alignment before and after report to be confusing - was surprised the price suddenly jumped from $89.99 for $149. What do you guys think of these numbers?

Much better. You can really only adjust Toe and caster, not camber so you weren't exactly lied to. For that price, i would make sure they completely zero out the toe, but someone got lazy..
Zero meaning if the range is .08 to -.08, 0, if 0 to .16, .8. They got close though

Aside from this there were some issues at the shop which made raised red flags and made me suspect of everything going on.
I will say car drives awesome. Unbelievable how much better new rubber makes the driving experience. ill add I was replacing OEM Michelin’s. They were right at the wear mark but also horribly uneven from the bad alignment and even those drove great considering!
