example: end up with -.5 in the front, run 0.00 in the rear, end up with -1.0 in the front? run -.5 in the rear

Is that a lot of toe? yes, but you are probably on worn ass out 100k mile rubber suspension bushings that flex all over the place under braking and turn in... which requires us to run more static toe than normal (for autoX)

You know from all 1million + posts that running autoX on stock suspension does nothing but eat the sh_t out of front tires do to lack of negative camber achieved by the front struts...

Good luck..
Thanks. I have 28,700 miles on the car, but yes, it is sitting on 14+ year old bushings. I will be headed into the alignment shop in a couple of weeks and have taken notes. Thanks again.
