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

Awesome. Thank you for that insight. That’s good to know.

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!
