allignment question

I had one done several months ago and the shop that did it (Sears Auto) adjusted it to factory specs. I was wondering if it's recommended, say if I wanted to do my own (at-home/improper) tweaking of the front wheel camber.
Reason I ask is that the outside tread is more worn ever since a few too many auto-x runs .

Oh yeah, car is S4 TII. Stock... for now.

Thanks,
Sodara

Sodara, if you have the extra cash and can aford it buy the allighnment tool sold by summit, its about 200.00 dollars for the kit with all accessories, and will allow you to set your caser, camber, and toe-in.

If you following the direction it is relatively accurate, and you could then set your suspension the way you want it prior to a race and then reset for sttreet when finished.

Its made by SPC and sold at summit, SPC parts numbers are 91100 and 91000 for the 13~17" unit. If you run larger than 18"s you will need the 91100 and 91010 respectively.

it takes a little practise to get proficient with the tool, but once you get it allighnment settings are quick and relativly easy.
