The 2010 Cadillac STS responds best when caster, camber, and toe are returned to the OEM target window for both front and rear axles. Front adjustments typically focus on setting total toe and ensuring side-to-side camber balance for neutral on-center feel, while rear camber and toe are set to stabilize the chassis and protect tire shoulders. Our technicians use manufacturer-referenced targets and tolerances for each measurement and verify that steering angle is calibrated with the wheel straight ahead.
