Default So I got an alignment and here are the results

I got an alignment. Below are the results. I have no knowledge about any of the numbers. So can someone tell me if my car looks better after the alignment?

THanks

Look up toe and camber. Those are the only things you need to be concerned about.

Do you have adjustable coilovers in the rear? Your camber isn't the same on both sides and the spring height can cause that.

For toe, you should ask them to set it at 0.00*

Are you lowered? Since you have negative camber, I'm guessing around 2"?

The alignment does look better, but they could have done a little better. It's still perfectly acceptable though and within spec for toe. Camber is fine.

yes i do have adjustable coilovers on my car. does it mean the driver side or passenger side is higher than the other in the rear?

that could be the problem, most likely. toe will cause the tires to wear more quickly than camber or caster. camber will also cause tire wear but it will not take as long, that is depending on how positive/negative it is, however camber will cause a pull to the side with the most positive camber.
