    Took it in for an alignment. Front camber and toe were off. They fixed it but when they would adjust camber, caster would go out. When they fixed caster then camber would go out of specs. They got camber and toe in spec but now caster is out. They said caster doesn’t impact tire wear. Is that true?

    I believe they are correct. No real affect on tire wear.

    Normal and yes caster does not impact tire wear.

    Two question though.
    How much lift are you running?
    What UCA's are you running?

    It does play a role in steering feel, Think of it as casting a fishing rod and attempting that action at different angles and points along your fishin pole with the front to back tilt/angle.
