I had my cars geo setup recently. Does anyone know how to convert degree to mm, I want to know what my toe setting is at in mm.

Thanks

Degrees is what you actually have, its comparable to lots of other stuff. mm is what it converts to with your wheel tyre size & is not relevant to anything else except the spec book.

mm in my book is a stupid system!

The reason I ask is that I found some geo settings online and was wondering how closely my settings match.

Front toe: 1mm toe out overall
Front camber: 1 degree negative each side

Rear toe: 2mm toe in overall
Rear camber: 1 degree negative each side

Unfortunately the toe is in mm rather than degrees.

I had the same problem in reverse, the manual quotes as a dimension and the gauge I was using had degrees. I found this chart as a starter

You just select wheel size & convert either way.
