tire alignment

205 views

Why is it that every time I go get my car aligned, there’s always one fire that remains the same or isn’t completely fixed?

For example, I went today and it said that my right rear tire has a -1.3 degree camber? And once it was aligned, the right rear tire still has a -1.3 degree camber?

All the other tires were “aligned”. This has happened on numerous occasions and I don’t understand it.

What kind of car? Depending on the car, -1.3 might still be within allowable tolerance.

Except for trucks, probably 90% of the cars taken in for alignments are only adjusting toe because very few cars have adjustable caster and camber. Most cars have aftermarket components to allow for camber, caster and toe on the front and rear but because of cost and time, they aren’t done or even offered.
