Toe

DESCRIPTION
- Toe should only be checked and adjusted after, the caster and camber have been adjusted to specification.
- Toe-in and toe-out is the difference in the distance between the extreme front and extreme rear of the tires. Toe-in occurs when the dimension taken at the front of the tires is less than that taken at the rear of the tires-positive toe. Toe-out occurs when the dimension taken at the front of the tires is greater than that taken at the rear of the tires-negative toe.
