i really dont know much about alignments but after talking to darin for a while at west end, it seems like ur alignment is pretty standard. He made my front -1.25 degrees. He told me that negative 3/4 of a degree is what pretty much everyone gets so i guess they gave u an average joe alignment

How did he adjust the rear camber? Do you have bolts or plates?

i would go back and specify that you would like the numbers to be more even especially for your rear camber and the toe, have them zero out the toe all the way around and tell them you want your rear camber to be even on each side like the front or at least +/- .-1 degrees
