Forget about tire wear; negative toe in the back will cause the azz end to dance around at higher speeds/ very unsafe.

Firestone does this too. Looks just like this printout. And after two paid alignments, the rest are free for life / the rest of your ownership of the vehicle.

Hard to beat that!

That alignment service is also free (maybe basically included in the price) when I buy tires from the dealership.

Free ain't free if you have to spend $1k to get it! lol. Point understood, though.
