What's Involved In A Wheel Alignment?

[Moodles2]

When I got new front tyres, the place I got them from offered to do a wheel alignment. I thought I would try to educate myself on the subject when I go back to do my rears later. My R32 GTR's suspension is all factory except for the Nismo coilovers, I was under the impression there was no adjustability in the suspension at all. Wheel doesn't pull to either side going straight and never hit a kerb before.

Though at Mallala my left tyres front and rear (front the worse off) tyres get eat away the outside tread abnormally fast.. though im guessing that's just from all it's right turns or the left side's toe is in too far

Track rod end normally gets adjusted on laser allignment not sure on skylines though i am guessing they are no differant to other cars???......

toe is adjustable from factory. not sure what else. If outter edges were worn on the track, good chance the tyres were rolling on to the outside, run some neg camber, will help this issue and improve handling. Also some +ive castor.

Swaybars will help reduce the bodyroll, adjustable helps tune the handing.

Your toe will be adjusted to standard specs, these are best for tyre wear not necessarily going fast.

It is very important for tyre wear that an alignment is performed whenever you get new tyres. An Alignment will also improve handling, straightline stability and speed and braking. Its fairly important!
