Can front alignment being out effect rear tyre wear?
Discussion
Hello
My front wheel alignment is out (I have shoulder wear on the inside of the drivers tyre).
When looking at the rear, it looks like I have some Minor wear on the inside of the rear tyre (same side). Could it be that the front alignment has caused the rear to wear unevenly or is the rear out too?
Is it worth paying for 4 wheel geometric alignment or should I just get the front done as I know this is out?
Many thanks

Hello
Car had full 4 wheel geo alignment done today. Front and rear toe was adjusted. This makes sense to me as that's how the tyres have worn, the front being worse than the back.
Is it still likely there is a bush issue or other issue? If so how can I get it diagnosed? I don't want to have to pay again for a check and then have somebody tell me it needs some thing doing just so they get the work.

Sorry mate, I appreciate the help but Im just not convinced because the toe needed to be adjusted which I thought did explain the wear pattern. Hence why I asked questions.
I will have to get a mechanic I know and trust to have a look and tell me if it needs doing and if it does I'll get it done.
