Alignment Specs

Don't have any numbers for you....... But I know the next time I do an alignment I'm going to have them flatten out the rear wheels. Can't afford to keep replacing rear tires every 2 to 3000 miles... They wear so much on the inside edge I have to rotate them by 800 miles to get the edges reversed

Thanks for the link OBC
So the tolerance is more than the actual? I don't know about that ...
I can see why ... -1.5* is a LOT of rear camber.
Is all that negative camber because of the car being so tail happy?
I haven't looked close enough, but are the upper and lower control arms equal length? In other words, will the rear see camber gain as it loads the suspension?
Front Suspension
Camber -0.50°± 0.60°
Camber Cross Tolerance ± 0.60°
Camber -0.50°± 0.60°
Camber Cross Tolerance ± 0.60°

My rears lasted about 10k miles but even wear. My fronts lasted about 15k miles with plenty of tread left but running on the wires on the inner edge. The car has developed a shake when braking so as soon as I get a chance, I am getting an alignment.
