Default Who wants to attempt to decrypt my alignment spec sheet?

So the printer from the alignment shop I went to today must be crazy defective. Who wants to try to tell me what it says.

I might be wrong but does it look like the toe went from .005 to .010 in the rear (which is worse, right?)

Your alignment specs look good. Toe in the rear did increase, but the spec is .04 -.16.
.10 is actually completely neutral in the spec. There is .06 give either way + or - to get out of spec. This gives you the thrust angle of. 0000 which is spot on. In the front most imortantly to straight line driving is cross caster is less that .5. Toe is set to the low side of the spec, which is better(IMO) for the front, and lastly camber is within spec. Again, looks like a good alignment and a healthy suspension. Some of the values are a little garbled by the printer. Like rear camber. can't say on that. Either way if drives straight, the steering wheel is straight, and the specs are in spec then rock it. Hope this hleps.

Thanks for the input. Just wanted to make sure my toe looked good because everyone says that bad toe is one of the major reasons for inner-side tire wear. Which is exactly why I had to replace my tires, because the inner sides became bald while the middle and outer edges still had tread.
