Need help changing toe inches into degrees

I'm having problems where I got my car aligned that they can't switch inches to degrees. What is 3/32" in degrees?

Toe is not measured in degrees. Only caster and camber are measured in degrees. Never seen an option on an alignment machine for degrees of toe. Only fraction or decimal readout.

Ok. Well i have to figure out why in 1100 miles after installing them they are almost gone. And I installed a clutch 550 miles ago so I know for sure more than half of it is not hard at all

And my rear end gets really squirrelly when hitting bumps?

The squirrely ness probably occurs due to losing traction when hitting the bump and the torque hitting the pavement again.

So after arguing with the alignment shop they finally bought me two back tires and did the alignment how it should be done.
