Wheel alignment
The camber angles of the right and left wheels must be the same. If there is a difference between the two sides of more than one degree, the car will drift off course, which must be corrected with the steering wheel, which will lead to premature tire wear.
The camber angle of the wheels is usually small: approximately 1°.
Angle of longitudinal inclination of the wheel rotation axis

The angles of inclination of the steering axes of the right and left wheels must be the same. A difference of more than one degree causes the car to drift off course, which must be corrected with the steering wheel, which leads to premature tire wear. This is manifested by the car being pulled at a constant speed to the side where the angle has a smaller value.
Wheel alignment
Adjusting the toe-in has virtually no effect on the car's performance on the road. It should be noted that excessive reverse toe-in causes symmetrical wear on the inner parts of the tire tread on both wheels, while excessive toe-in causes symmetrical wear on the outer sides of the tire tread on both wheels.
