Default Results from my Wheel Alignment today. What do you think?


So tell me what do you think of the results???

I can't get over how good the caR feels after they got done with it. The caR even feels like it rolls easier, turn in feels sharp, the rear does not want to move around that much and and over all solid feeling

I gotta say thanks to http://www.rpmracinginc.com for being professional and taking the time to do it right and answering all my questions.
I would recommend them to anyone in the future.

Judging by the camber change I would assume so...

Whats with the caster change though, it changes that much with the driver in?

Strangely I had no pull in either direction, I just went as a precautionairy measure for two reasons one the car was hit and two I have not had them aligned in a over a year.
No I did not sit in the caR
and the reason I went with the toe setting was : <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by magic hat #9 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">1/16" front toe out and 0" toe rear; there isn't much more to be done with the stock suspension.
</TD></TR></TABLE>

That's the same spec I got from them last time I was there, although with more camber cuz my car is slammed y0. Anyway, turn-in is great, but I don't like to jig-saw my steering wheel at 70+

Why is your right rear camber so far off from the left rear? That is not good.

Also, if you're running toe out it's going to suck on the street as was noted. Very darty even with 0 toe in front.

I run 0 toe all around and it tramlines in ruts.
