HI

I just went through this with my EVo today. My Advan's in the front were worn inside and I went in today to get the alignment.


Here are my actual spec's: LF -0.4 Camber RF -0.03
after alignment. LF 3.2 Caster RF 3.5
LF .02 Toe RF .09
LR -0.5 Camber RR -0.7
LR 0.12 Toe RR 0.08

I am working with Mitsu on replacement of my front tire's right now.

Thanks guys. I'm 13K into the car and the tires are shredded b/c the toe settings are atroscious. I'm looking to have replace all 4.

Where does it state that Mitsu must bring the settings to "spec" before the dealer can deliver the car to the customer.

Thanks again.

My Mitsubishi dealer here locally sent the car out to a body-shop to do the alignment. They gave me a before and after alignment print-out. I am working with the local DSM of the dealership on replacement of my front tire's.

I went to a Big "O" Tire and the tech there had absolutely no problem at all aligning it my custom spec. He even offered to let me sit in the car while he aligned it. He also gave me 30 days of trial and error to test out the settings. If I didnt like it, re-alignments for 30 days were free. All for $55.95.

Firestone.

Lifetime alignment for about $110.

I take it in every few months or whenever I change anything on the suspension.

Was it a special on the side deal or something or should any firestone shop be able to do this?
