Here is my actual alignment sheet. You can see I ran just barely over 2.7, and my insides were always first to cord. But let me know if you see something else that may have caused it?

Dave,
The only thing I see is front toe out.. Im sure you use that for turn-in response.. I use 0 front toe because my car is a D/D.

A number of guys here have complained of suspension changes during a run.
Most dealers do not use proper bolt torque procedures when aligning the car.. Grand Turismo East now does all my alignments, and they do a superb job... maybe worth checking to see if anything changed.
Best,
Bill

Thanks Bill! Yeah, I don't think anything had moved... but never know. When we do our next alignment on the new car, I'll be sure to up the torque spec to 'gutentight'

And the Toe out is 'almost zero' at -.02 degrees imo. So, effectively less than 1/64" total toe out.

I just always prefer if not zero... be a degree out vs. a degree in.

None the less... I'll have to reset next to zero or a degree in. And see if it improves wear.

Best regards,

I would run a slight bit of toe in. These cars toe out naturally on the road .1 total toe front and rear seems to mitigate inside tire wear.
