Too much toe-out will accellerate the problem, but too much neg. camber can also be the culprit. You can try rotating the upper strut perches so the paint mark is on the inside of the engine compartment (forward for more + caster, rearward for less + caster) which will lessen the negative camber slightly.

Cost really depends on where you have it done. I have had mine done for about $60 for 4 wheel alignment. I think you could have it done most anywhere for $50 to $75.

Do you have a Firestone nearby? They have "lifetime" alignments...

thanks Phantom, didn't know that they did offer a lifetime alignment. I just got off the phone with them, and its costs $139 for it.

For me it's a good investment...seems like I'm always needing an alignment
