    hello guys! kc un friend ko bought a 96 corolla e pinapaltan nya ng tires den pina-align n din dun s pinag pinagbilhan ng tires. npansin ko lng na un rear wheels ng car nya is hindi diretso. i mean, hindi straight un pagkakatayo pagtiningnan sa back view ng car. mejo palabas ng konti un babang part ng rear wheels. konti lng nman pero binalik pa din namin dun sa pinag align na shop. check nila un wheels den sabi nun mekaniko dun, normal lng daw un sa 96 na corolla kc un daw un nakalagay sa specification ng corolla. den tiningnan namin un monitor ng pc, kulay green naman un mga measurements so we assumed na tama na nga un alignment. now my question is, normal nga lang ba na mejo palabas tlg un wheels sa baba?? thank u very much for ur reply!

    If he's not comfy with the toe-in or alignment of the tires, he can try getting a second opinion from other shops. Another option is to have the alignment done with a manual rig (i.e. Wheelers Susp. Haus, JP Wheels) since it does not make use of pre-stated settings.

    cowboytuna, you are reffering to a "Negative camber set up" -labas ng konti ang lower part ng tire.. i hope someone can post here the right camber angle of corolla so corolla owners can compare.. about wheel alignment, mas-gusto ko ung manual ung meron parang telescope na makita mo ung angle in degrees ng toe-in/out, camber & caster angles..

    thank u po mga sir sa replies. i hope may magpost nga ng default angles ng corolla.

    btw, ok lng b kun naka toe in un?? or is it bad?? or ganun ba tlg dapat un settings ng alignment sa corolla 96? wala naman problem sa driving, walang kabig sa either sides.
