Why would they not zero the toe out?

Another guy who thinks rolling dumped w/out a camber kit and wasting tires is the new JDM, yo! :rollseyes:

yea man skunk 2 kits are fine..alone with omnipowers....aka theyre the same ******* thing...

ps...toe will eat tires up faster than rolling around with -2 degrees...theres too many nubs out there thinking any negative camber is what kills tires

factory specifies up to -1 degree.. and thats puss econo factor.. -1 to -2 degrees is straight for street use..run a little more up front than rear..it will help get more tire to the ground when you accelerate and lift the front up the car, causing the suspension to gain positive

You can try and get it aligned but it your still having issues with uneven tirre wear, your gonna have to get a cmaber kit and another alignment which is more money. Just buy a kit and call it a day. Im doing mine later this week when it gets nice so ill let u no how it comes out and any tips.

Do you know what your camber specs are right now? Can you post them up here?

You need to GTFO, 3 posts from you in this thread and only 1 is halfway worth anything. Keep it up and you'll be reported, if you haven't already.

I had mine aligned after I ran over a big brick of wood doing 95 on the PA turnpike... the place I took it to said that nothing was bent, but my passenger side front is around -4 degrees. Overall I thought they did a pretty bad job aligning it, seemed like they barely did anything, even though they said I needed a camber kit. I've heard bad things about them though and am kinda afraid to get one, however I'm sooo sick of the way the front of my car looks with the camber off so bad. I think I might just adjust the coilovers up a bit and hope that compensates enough...

If you've got -4* camber and you're not completely slammed to the floor, then I would say something most definitely is bent, despite what the shop says. There's just no way it can be that much without something being damaged, and you still able to drive it.

Well I don't even think they touched the camber for the most part, just set the toes, which they did an okay job on, but on the rear camber, they actually made one side worse then what it was before, while the other side stayed the same.

If you don't have a camber kit, they can't adjust it anyway. How could they make one side worse on the rear? There is no camber adjustment from the factory. If it's just barely worse than it was before (like a few hundreths of a degree) well then that's just a result of adjusting the toe, which will affect the camber reading a very slight amount.

hahah looks like he wont be seeing anyone flexing... hahaha, but seriously i would never trust a mechanidiot who says that after going around 70 and hitting a brick of wood, that nothing bent or nothing broke. def something sounds fishy there. take it to a different place, one that u no somebody that works there or good reputation and let them take a look. 4* sounds like a lil too much IMO
