Thanks for your opinion, Gerard. I'm a little bit confused about the calculations:


In the FAQ we have the numers:


Factory front alignment (ALL years):

Total toe: -3.5mm +/- 1mm

Camber: -20 min +/- 30min (-0.33 deg +/- 0.5 deg)

Caster: 8 deg.


1993+ Factory Rear alignment with OEM tires

...

Total toe: 4mm +/- 1mm*

Camber: -1 deg 30 min +/- 30min (-1.5 deg +/- 0.5 deg)


4 mm = tan-1(4/1000) = 0.23 degrees = 13.8 minutes?

6 mm = tan-1(6/1000) = 0.34 degrees = 20.6 minutes?


Yes, I see that my front toe is way off. Does the caster mean something like a previous damage?


The car was lowered about 3 cm with Eibachs. Camber -2 on the rear is the minimum possible, my garage told me.


Thanks in advance,

Thomas
