I had new struts installed and at the same time an alignment job done.
For some reason the mechanic set the rear total toe at 0.0 mm with the normal range being 0.7 mm to 2.8 mm (mean value 1.8 mm)
left toe at 0.1 mm (normal: 0.4 mm – 1.4 mm, mean 0.9 mm)
right toe at -0.1 mm (normal: 0.4 mm – 1.4 mm, mean 0.9 mm)
and the left rear camber at -0° 50' (normal range: -1°25' to -0°25', mean: -0°55')
and the right rear camber at -0° 59' (normal range: -1°25' to -0°25', mean: -0°55')
Obviously, the rear toe is out of spec. I have consulted 3 other alignment shops about that, with the 2 saying that the difference is so small that there won't be any problems like uneven tire wear and the 1 suggesting to realign the wheels.
Whose right? Is this small deviation going to have any measurable effects (like uneven tire wear) or should I ignore it?
