Easy way to check for toe-in? Options

[TonyAKAVW]

I just received tires today to replace my front tires, which have worn on the inside much faster than the outside. My rear tires still have a lot of tread, whereas the fronts are basically bald on the inside. My guess is that its either toe-in or camber. The wheels don't look cambered any more than the back, though the front of the car does sit a bit lower than the back.

So my question is, is there a way to easily check to see if the front has too much toe-in? I was thinking about rigging up some laser pointers or something, but I don't know.

I would like to avoid getting an alignment because later this year I'll be putting on my carerra front suspension. For now I'd just like to prevent premature wear of the tires.

I'm in the tire business and I'd bet real money (Canadian) that it is a "toe out" issue....negative camber would have to be severe and run many miles to wear out the inside couple of ribs with just street driving.

I have done my own race car alignments for years....like many others here, but if I were you I'd just spend the $75.00 and have a professional do the job...they will also be able to see possible culprits other than being out of adjustment....ie.bent steering arms, spindles, worn bearings etc...y'now just in case.
