Just got some rear tyres on my new s2000.

did it in elite tyres rainham. they were great, very friendly with fast service. but they said they checked the toe on my car and

front was -2
rear -4

does anyone know if these figures need urgent attention. i have never had a car that drives so straight. so i was quite surprised. and by the 10+ people waiting to be aligned, i thought that it may be their method for getting extra cash after supplying the rubber?

cheers

i presume they are saying -2 minutes + -4 minutes. minutes are normally within tollerance it is when it goes into degrees that you will get major wear ( probably feel it aswell). dont forget that the frt. tyres will wear on the inside anyway, that is the way the car is set up.
i get my 4 wheel alignement set up on every service. (read hand book).
dont loose any sleep over it

Pointless just checking the toe on a car like this!

Have a read of the FAQ there are FULL details on the S's alignment in there.

 

yeah! i assume that they were just trying to get extra cash then!
