I got the alignment done finally at Clarks alignment. They said the toe was off causing the wear on the outside. They used a Hunter machine and set it at GM specs they said. What I didn't like is they put these devices on my wheels and the metal teeth on them left marks on two of them. My wheels are not chrome but I wonder how they treat nice chrome wheels. I probably will be looking for someone that does it by measuring or uses something else that won't mess up the wheels next time.

I got my alignment done but I didn't like the devices they put on the wheels. They left marks on 2 of the wheels. I think I will look for some place that doesn't have to put the machine on the wheels and mess my wheels up. They did say the toe was off and that would wear the edges on the outside.
