Hey Matt

Are you sure that's toe? That doesn't sound right to me. Can you list  your specs? One thing to
keep in mind, however, if the total toe isn't in bold numbers, along w/ any of the other
adjustments, then it's in spec in regards to not wearing out the tires. Caster isn't adjustable
and also is a non-wearing adjustment. Caster sets one wheel ahead of the other. Camber adjusts the
angle of the strut, and toe adjusts position of the wheels (pointing left and right). If you're
worried and keep your tires rotated every 6k mi and still have edge wear, I'd get it checked
agian. Oh and one more thing, I don't believe rear camber is adjustable on SHOs either... Not 100%
sure on that though.. 

Neno.. been quite a while since I've cranked down on the sho!
