if the camber on the left wheel is -ve and on the right wheel is +ve
(and close to the top of the range) then the left wheel is leaning on
its outer edge as is the right wheel..
how can this not be a cause of the tire wearing off unevenly?
in my case both the front and rear left and right tires has this..
as regards caster, it went 2.82->2.86 on the left and
2.11->2.13 on the right.. maybe it helps but its not a big
adjustment considering the range 1.80/2.80/3.80...
btw, the reason i went to the alignment shop is i got new tires
installed. the tire shop looked at my old tires and saw wear on the
outside of the front/rear left.. only the rear right looked ok..
i wish i had some snaps of those, but oh well...
bottomline: i would like to go back to midas and ask them to
look at the caster.. but looks like u r saying that only the toe is
adjustable.. of the three parameters the 99 accord has only the
toe adjustable. that sounds woefully inadequate..
