As far as the printout, it looks that the green numbers are within factory specs. But those factory specs are a little loose. Take the camber for instance, the camber is -2 left and -1.6 right. I would want the camber to match from side to side so the car turns in the same in each direction and the tires wear the same on each side. Camber is how much the tire leans in or out, negative meaning it leans in and wears out the inside corner more(what always wears out on lowered cars). So the -2 camber on the front left is going to cause that tire to wear quickly, also -1.6 to -2.0 is too much from what I have read -1.5 is plenty on both the front and rear. I have also read that 1/16th an inch of toe in on the rear is plenty with zero toe on the front. Im pretty sure these are the settings for a performance alignment, aka better handling but being the camber is less the tires would last longer than the alignment currently on your car. I have never done alignment but I understand caster, camber, and toe. I proablly am not helping much here by babbling so look into caster, camber and toe and you can find great explanations with pictures online.

I hope I made an ounce of sense somewhere in there.

Actually you did, at least to me. I really need to research this stuff more.

You know that either way the alignment is several months old already and MAY be out of date. go get a new one if you think the car is giving you trouble. I usually get a new alignmet as soon as I get new tires. Since the RT 615s don't last too long with all the AutoXing it works for me..
