    No, but if you have too much toe in or toe out, you will have bad tire wear. Get the alignment. I ruined a set of tires this way because I thought it was "close enough."

        Waaahh, because e30.

        On another note. My help for bleeding my front brakes is not showing up at a decent hour. Soooo, either get to bleed them in the dark if he shows up or i get to drive with a mushy pedal tomorrow. Glad to know who i can count on. Fucker...

                  What is this "buy" concept you speak of?

                  I just can't justify buying something like that I will use once maybe twice a year. And, I'm a cheap-ass. Because r3v taught me so.

                          Hey guys they have made this new invention, don't know if you guys have heard of it yet, it's called a tape measure and they do a pretty good job at measuring stuff. You can use them to measure your toe angle. I posted a picture below for reference.
