V70 Rear wheel allignment

Post by Stickyboy »

Hello All,
New to the site. Looks good. Hope you can help.
I have noticed outside wear on the rear tyres of my 2001 v70. The affected tread has a rough one way and smooth the other way feel to it, condusive I believe to toe in. Is there a way to adjust the rear toe? or is it a main dealer super expensive job?
Cheers
