The linear sum toe-in results when the distance between the front wheels is less at the front of the axle than at the rear of the axle.
Angular toe-in is the angle of the front wheel centerlines (1), relative to the intersection of the forward projected vehicle center line.
The actual amount of the toe-in is normally a fraction of a degree. Toe-in is measured from the center of the tire treads or from the inboard side of the
tires. The purpose of the toe-in is to ensure parallel rolling of the front wheels and to offset any small deflections of the wheel support system which
occur when the vehicle is rolling forward. Incorrect toe-in can cause unstable steering and front tire wear. The toe-in is the last angle to be set in the front
wheel alignment procedure.
The steering wheel pull is the effort required by the driver to keep the vehicle on a straight path while driving on a level road. The front end alignment of
a vehicle may be within the acceptable range of the caster and camber specifications and continue to exhibit a pull condition.
The steering wheel pull specifications allow for model sensitivity to cross camber and cross caster settings.
