My alignment numbers good?
I just got an alignment and was wondering if the finished numbers were satisfactory or not. I know they meet what satisfies the dealership, but what about this group of hooligans? I know I need a camber kid terribly to atleast make it match side to side, but Im a poor college kid and just needed to get my toe set to get more mileage outta the tires. Anyone know why my Eibach springs on Koni yellows wouldnt have matching camber? My car has a slight tilt to it which im guessing is spent bushings although the steering and everything is very tight along with B-Joints tie rods etc. Thanks.

uhh, as long as toe is close to 0, and you only have slight camber, your tires should last for the time... unless you drive like me. i kill tires rated for 40000 miles in only 10000... i dont tell them i auto-x in them lol
i hear that about being a poor college kid. my daily (da) got hit and my frame is bent, so i eat tires every few weeks now... good thing i have 780932709 spares...
as far as caster, you cant do anything about it.. usually that like a bent lca or something.
if you drop the car, you will get slightly more negative camber
toe isnt affected with a drop

please stop putting out false information....
OP youve got the toe set pretty close on the front, the rears are in spec as well.
for the camber/ride height issue, were they brand new springs or used? thats why i never bother with springs, id rather be able to set my height evenly. Also if you dont want to pick up a rear camber kit, look up "the washer trick" for the rear camber and go with that.

Everything was brand new when installed. I guess once I am back to work I'll get all new bushings for the front, Skunk 2 front camber kit, and the hardware for the rear washer trick. Reason I didnt buy a camber kit was like many here, I wanted a tad bit for when I autocross this coming summer. But I thought installing identical components would lower each side an equal amount. Im not gonna lie, Ground Controls are looking pretty good in the future because this really bothers me to no end that brand name parts were so far off on an unwrecked car. Its been in the family since new and I know nothing is tweaked.
Thanks guys...
