WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Subaru Impreza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Using a toe-in gauge, measure the rear wheel toe-in.
    1. Toe-in:  0+/-3 mm (0+/-0.12 in)
  2. Mark the rear sides of left and right tires at height corresponding to the center of spindles and measure distance "A" between marks.
  3. Move the vehicle forward so the that marks line up with front sides at height corresponding to the center of spindles.
  4. Measure the distance "B" between left and right marks. Toe-in can then be obtained by the following equation:

A - B = Toe-in
