Default I'm about 45 lbs. heavier than you...

the total driver+car weight was 3764. I took out the spare tire in the trunk and the emergency toolcase.

Default Oh, that's not bad. (m)

Your numbers add up to 4049...

Do yourself a favor and give the shop a ring to double check those numbers. Hopefully they wrote them down on your alignment printout or on a setup sheet. Otherwise, I'd say they owe you some more time on the scales.

Default The side-to-side distribution seems pretty far off. Here are my numbers...

It seems like they should have been able to really balance it more than it is.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1771230.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1771230.phtml</a</li></ul>
