New tires aligned after 300miles.

[saiko21]

Hi All,

I just went to get my wheels aligned and it was out of toe by few degrees.

I went with Firestone as they offer lifetime wheel alignment. After everything is done they said the tires have some edgewear, then I told him that it's brand new and just 300 miles are on them.

I guess when I was having my car brand new from showroom I saw similar pattern after few 100 miles.


Right now I am using Michelin A/S 3+.

I don't know why it was showing that because I never felt any pull before the alignment

Not trying to be snarky ... but that's .24 degree on Right front, and .17 degree on Left front.
Those are smallish fractions of a degree ... but I doubt that 300 miles with those alignment settings would have done any noticeable damage.
Just my opinion ...

While your toe specs are out of spec, I have to agree with Bug on this one.....
