Quick question...

I have just had a 4 wheel alignment done on my Peugeot 306 gti and the rear camber is out (-1.43 left and -0.54 right).

This can't actually be adjusted, so my only option would be to swap the rear beam and hope the new one is better; which is by no means assured.

Are these settings dangerous, or likely to cause very bad tire wear? As ideally, on a car this cheap, I would just live with it.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick responses.

I've only just got the car on the road, having bought it as a mot failure. So not put many miles on it. I just got the alignment done as a matter of course with a new to me car.

It seems to handle ok, but I'm still getting a feel for it.

Re failed bearings, would this be hub bearings or bearings where the beam is attached? I will happily do the work myself if required.

Just to add, according to the alignment place, the settings should be between -1.05 and -1.35
