Hi
I recently noticed on parking in the garage (which has a dusty floor) that the rear wheels have a very large camber; the contact pattern of the grey dust from the floor pressed onto the tyre covers 2/3rds of the inner portion of each rear tyres. I'm including both the outer and inner tread blocks in my view of that.
Visually it doesn't look out compared to the fronts and I can see in specs that rear for example is 10' compared to the front being 20'. But for example the fronts had floor-dust pretty much across the whole tyre surface.
I and have google'd plenty of threads asking about different settings and where to get alignment done. For an example - I might get myself a "free" alignment check at KwikFit but of course only taking to a specialist if it shows anything out of whack. [I know of a good one where the sus' guy is actually a stickler for detail - he dialled my M3 into zero error where a previous shop were happy with "just good enough" - although I wouldn't let them start adjusting anything]
But has anyone else noticed or perhaps seen something similar and determined already that, visually at least, something similar to that.
Cheers
Chris
