Default 1/8" toe out in degrees...(i promised i searched...

....and searched and searched). i keep getting different answers. most threads refer to trig [soh cah toa], but even those answers vary. i have stock wheels and tires and need to know what 1/8" toe out will be in degrees. i've looked here (h-t) and s2ki. TIA

i don't mind being wrong or called out, etc...just would like a confident answer.

toe is not measured in degrees, only in length

camber is measures in degrees

i was refering to when you go get an alignment done. all their scales measure toe in inches. they do not have dgrees. if you want to know how to convert, just read the threads you posted. the info is there

are you taking it to a shop that has it in degrees?

yeah, my boy at the acura dealership said he needs all measurements in degrees. i've never actually done an alignment, so i guess i can only go by what he says.

AFAIK, toe is in degrees and minutes on a machine, as with factory specs.

1/8" = 1.74 degrees per side or total.

If you want 1/8" total, its half that per side.
