Alignment specs on Eibach springs (awd)
After putting on my springs a month or two ago.. i finally had my alignment re-done.
I had it aligned once before a week after putting on the springs, and the idiot said everything was in spec but that the "printer was broken so he couldn't show me." Pretty pissed about that, obviously it wasn't even aligned.
Anyways...

How does this look?
Car drives and tracks much better. the guy told me he could not adjust caster without having camber kits, and suggests that i get them. Should i get the camber kits, or is it fine as is?

Yep my wheels are square, cause i've got AWD. my tires are brand new so i'll see how they wear, and yea i rotate every few thousand miles.
drove it a bunch today since getting the alignment this morning... soooooo much better!
The only thing i'm not sure about is that caster, don't know if its really a bad thing that it's so far out of spec.

You should be ok w/ frequent rotations, just keep an eye on that inner section of tread, if it's wearing noticeably faster then you should look in to camber kits/toe bolts. Your caster is fine, a little extra caster keeps the car tracking straight, only downside is it takes a bit more effort getting your car off the straight line. I prefer a little extra caster TBH.

Oh ok, then i think I do want that extra bit of caster. My biggest problem with the car before was it felt like it was wandering all over the road. Now it's going nice and straight.
