Help verifing if my alignment is within specs.

I just took my car in this wekend to get aligned. To me everything looks fine but a friend said they look like it has to much camber. I have the alignment sheet attached if anyone can tell me if everything is fine. TIA

info: I'm dropped on Tein Flex, with SPL front camber and SPC rear camber.

Looks pretty good, but it also depends on what you are looking for in an alignment setup. Thats a pretty conservative setup that should provide even wear of the tires if you don't drive it hard. I personally would run more negative front camber which provides better handling, but I drive my car pretty hard alot of the time.

Great, I know you know your stuff redlude97, so I def sure its fine. I wanted a conservative setup that will give me good wear on the tires. Plus I dont drive hard often so its a good mix right between both, i hope. Thanks.

Which shop did you go to? I'm planning to get front and rear camber kit, will they adjust it too?

Those specs are perfect for good tire wear.

+1

Even more perfect if it doesnt cost over $800 for the camber kit/installation/alignment.

^^ idk about that, but front and rear camber kit cost was about $650 and the alignment was i think $80 or $100. I saved some cash by installing the camber kits myself.

superchargedg - thanks, its perfect for me for now. until i get some nicer rims.

-1 in the front is overkill. I drove for 10k miles with -2.1 camber in the front and noticed no abnormal wear in the front /w stock 19's /w Bridgestones, which is what I assume you have. Its the rear thats killer ._. Your spec should be fine back there.

you must not have checked the front inside of your tires or are not at -2. Even with the stock -1 camber with 19s you get more innner wear and feathering. And when I went to -2 I shredded the inside of my tires in 4k miles. My friend runs -1.5 and his get shredded in about 10k but he likes it like that so.
