[QUOTE="cidsamuth, post: 16228274, member: 110091"] Nevermind, guys, I figured it out. Measuring the difference more accurately with a string, it is 1/4". On a whim, I put a straight edge on the rims and an digital angle finder . . . the left/front, which is the one tucked more, has changed to -1% from the -.5% you see in the alignment printout. Best I can figure, the camber bolt moved after I left the shop yesterday morning. Moving the angle finder by hand back to -.5% gives me almost exactly the 1/4" difference that was bothering me. The right side is still at the listed -.6%. Ironically, the one that moved went to something closer to what Norm was recommending, while I very much prefer the look of the right wheel. I assume either the tech didn't get the bolt torqued to the recommended 97 ft/lbs, or perhaps 97 ain't quite enough. [/QUOTE]
