I lowered using tein basic coilovers about 1.8 - 2.1 somewhere in there...

My rear wheel's toe, WHAT I WAS TOLD, is now in. too much...

XA owners - did you find the same with your rear wheels if you got an alignment.

Did they do a centerline or thrust alignment?

Did you have the back wheel or wheels corrected.

Mine only effected the drivers side back - weird not both wheels

The fronts were a breeze - camber bolt done it.

CONCLUSION: the shop thinks I have a bad factory defect in the rear.

 

Personally I would go for a second opinion if possible. Did they even try to adjust the rear toe?

I'm waiting untill after I put my TRD shocks in to get an alignment. I can already tell the front wheel camber will need to be adjusted.

 

going in the morning for a second...

 

Moved to CC...

 

um thefront wheels shouldnt change unless you break/bend something. the camber will not change. as far as rear toe it is not adjustable only way to change it is by adding shims.

 

thanks

I went to a shop today to check the alignment and they said they could not use the computer's spec for the xa cause it was lowered.

I do I get the correct specs after I lower the car for a proper alignment?

 

DING DING DING!!

WINNER!!

Yeah, dropping the car changes the toe in the rear. I watched the techs in our shop do it several times. I've seen the machine. It isn't BS.

and doing alignments sucks
seriously, If I didn't do my own (as infrequent as possible)
i would hate to pay for this service (we charge $150+parts)
adding shims to the rear isn't as bad as other cars
at least you can get to the bolts.....
