Your rear toe is jacked. The camber is is quite a bit out. I don't like more than -1.75 for street use in the rear. If the shop says it is not adjustable tell them it is and to read the directions on win align.

You want +.1 toe on each side rear

You currently have +.1 on one side and -.07 (might as well call it -.1) on the other. I'll bet if you follow the car it is crabbing.

FInd a better alignment shop or make them correct it.

Thanks for the input I told them I think the camber was the problem an that’s exactly what they said “it’s not adjustable” I’ll let them know

I cannot give guidance on what specific settings you should try, but yes, the "after" results show little to no change and are still out of standard tolerances, front and rear.

I wouldn't return to the original shop either.

So as to reference...

Are you the original owner?

Vehicle ever involved in an accident?

Any suspension modifications?

Any recent maintenance?

Correct rim and tire sizing? Offset OK? Any spacers involved?

Thanks.

This is 100% true. That is worse then my "before" alignment. Find a shop that specializes and cares about what they're doing.

It's the toe more than camber.

You have a circle track alignment. It wants to turn left.

You are in Ga and it might be a drive but Steeda is in Valdosta and they will get it right the first time.

Find a new shop

Camber isn't the issue, I run 2.1 in the rear, 3.2 in the front, and I've never had excessive wear issues unless the toe is way out of wack.

Fix your toe, fix your issue. As everyone else says the shop you went to should not be patronized again.

Yeah that’s about 4 hrs out but I think I will just find another shop instead of dealing with someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing. It’s hard to find a shop that can align a lowered vehicle

Yeah won’t return to shop, not the original owner, never been in accident, lowered on ebach springs. No spacers

Find a racing shop near you that does alignments. Not that you race or want a race-oriented alignment but those shops always know what they're doing. They'll get you dialed in exactly how you want it.

Where are you in GA? 4 hours from Steeda probably puts you around the Atlanta area somewhere and I can recommend multiple shops to align you correctly here in town.

That’s would be extremely helpful, an Yes that’s correct I’m in the Atlanta area where do you recommend?

I would take the car to Speed Foundry of Roswell. Dana the owner there tracks his GT350, has aligned my car in the past, and plenty of other S550 cars.

I think it’s the toe that really kills that inner shoulder. I just had a big thread on it (and I haven’t done an alignment yet).

Camber will wear the entire inner half of your tire more aggressively but shouldn’t decimate anything like toe does.
