Not when you are OCD. It bugs the ever loving hell out of me to be riding down the road with one hand closer than the other, just one of my ticks.


I found a vid on You Tube that suggests using a TV antenna. I borrowed an extendable rod w/ magnet end from work and will go after it with that tomorrow. The Toe was so off that you could actually see the tires bowing out and the wear was palpable on the ride. I set them much closer last night, but want it to be as close to exact as I can get both to minimize wear as well as to satisfy my OCD.
