People's thoughts after my wheel alignment?

[PLuKE]

After my 4 wheel alignment was done yesterday, to address the rear camber issues of wearing on the inner part.

After I have had them done, the rear inner part of the tyre feels warmer compared to the rest of the tyre.

Here are the results?

Looks like they have just adjusted the toe front and back.
What does the writing in pen say on the right hand side,looks like in mentions camber??

Technically the rear is in spec and ok,but if you look the arrow should be in the middle like it is on the toe.If it was in the middle it would give you less negative camber which would help the scrubbing on your tyres.

Thank you, the writing states that they can't adjust the caster.

It seems the have dialled in more rear camber? What should it be. 1.15?

I cant see it on my phone when i zoom in.
The lowest number is the minimum tolerence and the highest number the maximum.
Technically its in the green so ok and within manufacturers tolerence but if it was spot on in the middle it would be better

Rear camber seems excessive, the range should be -0°50' to -1°50'

There now seems to be more camber added, I explaining that the rear in era had been scrubbing more. Will have to ring myself tomorrow and get the to dial some negative camber out.

Before it went in, it was still within manufactures tolerance, yet it was still scrubbing the inner rears. Now it seems with the new setting it's going to do that even quicker!

They probably havent touched the rear camber adjusters, by adjusting the rear toe it could have had an effect on the other measurements. The Hunter machines are very sensitive to any adjustments made elsewhere on the vehicle.

Thanks Mark, yours look spot on.

Why wouldn't the machine be more accurate with the rear camber, as yes it's in spec but will kill the tyres even more now!

my rear wheels still look afair bit sticking out at the bottam
