My alignment specs (rear toe)

[BoostinLI]

Just had the alignment done today around closing time. Upon looking at the sheet, I see the tech put a what appears to be a fair amount of negative toe. I'm not too familiar with this subject, so curious if this is too negative and problematic? Thank you

Rear toe looks ok. The closer to zero toe, more prone the chassis is to oversteer. Mostly noticeable on a road course. The rears naturally “toe out” (+) (slightly) when accelerating.

Are you sure about that? I have always been under the impression that the rear F8X suspension toes in under load and toes out when unladden to give it a passive steer in the same direction as the turn to improve high speed cornering stability.

In other words, do you mean it slightly simulates rear axle steering when unladen? I have not experienced that but tbh my rear toe is out as we speak I have not been able to find any data on that. If you have any can you please share; very interesting.

I am using toe in 3mm total w/o issues.

I run 0.03 of positive toe in the rear to keep with straight line stability while on full E85.

Here are my specs for your reference.

One thing to note is my camber obviously wasn't perfect. I wanted to dial toe in only since my car was corner balanced shortly after this and re-aligned.
