159 Lusso wheel alignment settings

Hello everyone

I know this is a recurring thread but can anyone please advise me on the correct or rather advised wheel alignment settings on a '09 159 Lusso SW 1.9jtdm with 17inch wheels, just got a couple of new front tyres fitted and the alignment showed rear was out slightly causing the whole car to be a few degrees out, set the rears up to standard and also set the fronts to parallel as suggested by a Northern Alfa specialist as hopefully this would help reduce the inner shoulder wear on the fronts. Christ the car now pulls to the left, whereas before she was steering true!

Otherwise just had 42000 mile service, nowt wrong with her, replaced front pads and discs. This is the best and most reliable car I have owned, had it since 13 miles old (pre reg model got it in Nov 09). I think I may have stumbled across a good'un, now if i can just get the wheels set up properly.....

cheers in advance
Fraser

It's in this post - Minus 2' +/- 5' per wheel (double for total Toe Out)

Thanks Chris

Seems I asked for them to do the right thing, I'll see how she goes in the next week or so.

cheers, Fraser
