Re: Car is \'twitchy\' after alignment...

I always dialed in about 3/4 of a degree of negative camber on my '98 for the street to cure the twitchyness, more for some tracks. Toe can certainly affect turn in but I wouldn't know about it causing the symptoms you describe. The shop may have alligned it to pre '00 specs which had less negative camber to maximize tire life. From what I remember the factory setting now has a little extra negative camber to cure this problem.

Re: Car is \'twitchy\' after alignment...

I just had all four corners re-aligned. Now, the car pulls
slightly to the right and is also a little "twitchy" on
rough pavement. I'm told it's a tire wear problem and replacing
the front tires (the rears are brand new) should take care of
the problem. ?????????
