Default 3D alignment

cheers steve, ive been having a lot of issues with tyres,steering iv had the tracking done twice on laser systems but iv been told it only measures 2 or 3 angles whereas 3d does around 15! iv found some garages online but id rather go where someone has experience .

i got it done at M tyres in yoker found them via facebook recommendation. the check and printout is free, they only charged me for the adjustments they made and even that was comparable to some spotty schoolie doin it in kwakfit!
as for settings my cars setup for trackwork so your prob best goin in since its free!
