My specs after alignment-your thoughts...

I told them to get my toe as close to 0 as possible to help with front feathering.

Also does my rear camber look off?

Why did you get the alignment to begin with?

Everything looks good except for the rear camber, and that's not that far off. As long as your toe is in spec, that's gonna be the majority of your tire wear. Not sure with an OEM setup why your camber falls out of spec though. I'd be kinda upset about paying for no adjustment.

I got one because its been a year and 20,000 miles since I got one, and I just got new tires.

Should I go back and fix the rear camber? if so, what spec should I tell them to set it at

^Are you lowered on anything without camber kits? If not then they should have no problem getting you back to OEM specs.

Go back and tell em to actually do work on your car. It's like they just took the measurements and just left it alone after...

No adjustments at all on the rears? They just stole your money and did nothing but barely touch the toe... I'm guessing you are stock suspension, if so tell them to put you full back in spec since you paid for the alignment!

But your car looks like it was fine before your alignment even and an alignment wasn't even really needed.

Turned out the guy that initially did my alignment wasnt their main alignment guy. Just got it done by the main guy.
