My allignment Settings....

Just had the swift springs installed and got it alligned shortly after...

Front Left = -1.9 Front Right = -1.3

Toe = 0

Rear Left = -1.0 Rear Right = -1.0

My question is that why wasn't the front able to match up? I asked the guy and he said thats all he could get. Was he just bsing me?

Is this setup bad for a daily driver?

I was trying to have -1 all around with 0 toe.

Check the marks on your eccentric bolts (top bolt that clamps your strut to your hub). Make sure the little white arrows are either pointing in or out.

If they're the same, its just the way it is. There are some things you can do, but they're a little more advanced. If they're facing different dirrections your shop sucks, and or your car's been wrecked...

IF the front Right / Left were the other way around, less on the left and more on the right, it would be better since your own body weight also effect the numbers !![/B]
