Alignmemt w/ Crash Bolts. Thoughts?



Car had some interesting toe stock. Might that explain wearing the stock tires in 11k miles? Anyway, -1.2 makes me happy.

Yes. You need to get an alignment after getting the crash bolts installed. Toe is what affects tire wear the most.

For some reason, the photo didn't come through on the original post. Fixed now.

Before shows before crash bolts, stock and only ever aligned at the factory. After is after crash bolts.

Should I be worried about the remaining .01 on toe?

0.01" is within error. You'll be fine...better than your previous setting.
