    I asked them to add caster and they said it was maxed out and would affect the toe and camber? So they were telling me lies?

    They were probably being lazy and lied to you to make you happy.

    Well thanks for the help. I guess I’ll be looking for a place for the third time. I’ve had two places do it so far with no lucky. From what I’ve read I figured there was a caster issue. Thanks again for the help.

    You went the wrong way. You just need a spec alignment with 265s.
    Take to a shop before you destroy your tires and get it aligned properly. I do everything myself but only get my alignment as close as I can before I drive it to an alignment shop.

    *Edit, just realized others already pointed out the issue. Just have them set it up as specified by Toyota.

    Located in East TN. As far as specs from Toyota shouldn’t the caster be set to 3-4?

    Update on my alignment. Went today to a third shop and this is what they could get me. It definitely is better clearance than before. They said the caster is maxed out now and if they went more the camber would be out. Any thoughts would be appreciated?

    Take pictures of the front and rear alignment cams and we can tell you if it's maxed out

    Will do as soon as I get back home. Is it possible that they aren’t maxed out but as far as they can be and the camber in spec?
