Hi all,
Anyone know what the tracking should be set to on a 4.0 Chimaera?, My front tyres are wearing on the insides which indicates to much toe out.

Yes could be, all chimaeras have some negative camber dont they? Is wearing front tyres on the inside normal?

The 'bible' states the following... 'for all cars':
Front track: 20 mins toe-in
Front Camber: 1/2 degree to 1 deg -ve (ideal = 3/4 deg)
Rear Track: As for front.
Rear Camber: As for front.

If the front camber is set to 3/4 deg, then the rear must be the same, i.e. not 1 deg for one and 3/4 for the other.
