Thanks, guys.

I do run 30-32 psi, but that's a good suggestion to vary them around a bit. I'll play with it.

Yes, the low profile tires probably do affect it, but the lowly PT Cruiser has 55-series also. And these wheels look soooo much better than the old-style 15's.

Oh, yeah I did replace the rear sway bar end links and bushings.
Had a senior moment and forgot.
not those front turkeys though - got to remove the whole car to get them.

And the rear wheel bearing, funny you should ask - the right rear has a noticable click when you rock it back and forth.
If it was a front, I'd take about 1/8 turn on the axle nut.
however, one day I actually set up the dial indicator and yanked in and out on it. I never thought you could accurately do that, but the indicator repeated readings perfectly, and unbelievably, the readings were right in the center of the spec - can' remember the spec right now, maybe .05mm.
But the left doesn't click at all - think maybe the right is the guilty party? These look like a beast to replace.

Sorry, can't find the last alignment print out. I do remember rear toe was actually +, but was in spec, barely.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
