Rear Wheel Toe-In: Inspection

  1. Using a toe-in gauge, measure rear wheel toe-in.
    1. Toe-in:  0+/-3 mm (0+/-0.12 in)
  2. Mark rear sides of left and right tires at height corresponding to center of spindles and measure distance "A" between marks.
  3. Move vehicle forward so that marks line up with front sides at height corresponding to center of spindles.
  4. Measure distance "B" between left and right marks. Toe-in can then be obtained by the following equation:
    1. A - B = Toe-in
