Hey guys, new member to this forum, anyway, I'm having a problem with my car at the moment and I' honestly stuck and don't know what to do.
I have coilovers on my car and whenever I drive 55+ MPH the steering wheel kinda shakes and THE main problem whenever I let me wheel go my car goes to the right. I thought it's my alignment but the mechanic told me I need camber and shit like that. He estimated me for like 600$ and that's when I was like NO WAY
So here I"ll post pictures of my alignment
Tell me any suggestions, I'm really stuck and it's not comfortable to ride like that because I always need to hold my steering wheel otherwise it goes to the right
I need your guys help.

Where are the actual alignment numbers?
What suspension are you using?

$600. for a 2nd opinion - I would go to a Mazda dealer for an estimate

I don't see anything with alignment numbers, ie toe, camber and caster

Ebay PYC coil overs are junk for the most part........

That's a lot of negative camber for a street car, obviously a result of being rather low on coilovers.

ASSUMING nothing is broken or worn-out or your tires are worn unevenly or your wheels are not balanced, I would suspect that your rear toe and camber may be steering the car. Given how low you are and how that's messing with your camber, I would bet that the alignment shop isn't going to bother messing with anything besides getting the numbers in the green unless you have them fix it.

Your mechanic is right, you need less negative camber if you want your street car to function properly.
Get some camber bolts for the front and dial in some positive camber. Shops like to call these bolts a "Camber Kit" like it means something more than a couple nuts and bolts with a retaining washer.

Those camber adjustable rear control arms may be your only solution for the rear. I don't know the rear of these cars well.



Or, raise the thing and fix the suspension geometry.

anymore suggestions guys?

Steering wheel shake at a specific speed is usually a front wheel balance issue. A hard steering wheel pull is usually front tire related. There is nothing on the alignment sheet that would immediately cause what you are describing. Rotate your tires and see what happens to your symptoms. And check your tire condition while you have them off.
