Wheel Alignment!!!!

4 wheel alignment was worth every penny!

Got my new wheels & tires last week & everything felt great.
But I decided to get an alignment just to make sure.

I'm glad I did. The rear total toe was off by over 10 deg. the front wasn't as bad but was double the spec toe.
The alignment guy was a fanatic, he wasn't satisfied until it was bang on.

The funny thing is the car felt good before hand. No pulling or anything. My guy said it was because it was out evanly, so therefore the car went staight.

But I did notice a distinct difference on my way home. The steering is more precise & the car feels more nimble.

Oh, by the way this is on a brand new car!!!!

Re: Wheel Alignment!!!!

I just had mine aligned today as well, after putting on my 19" wheels, 350z springs, and my Kinetix camber arms. I was able to dial the rear camber to -.9 on the left and -1.1 on the right, while keeping in the toe specs for the sedan. I was a little disappointed with the front camber specs, but there is no way I can adjust that unless I buy arms. It was -1.3 on the left and -1.1 on the right. I would have been able to dial in more positive camber in the rear if I had purchased the toe cams, but my stock ones were maxed out. I am pleased with the results. I also have about 1mm of toe-in in the front.
