It seems like everything is aligned correctly and when I went to the shop they agreed. When driving strait and turning around corners it seems fine. But when i turn sharply while going slow (like in a parking lot) it feels like the right wheel does not line up and skids across the ground. I can see there is some wearing on that tire as well. What should i check? Thank you very much Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Aug 11, 2013, 5:07 AM Post #2 of 3 (1830 views) Re: 1997 Saturn SC2 alignment problems when turning Sign In That is normal steering geometry built into the car. It's called "toe out on turns". It's not unusual for tires to scrub on real tight turns. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

They need to check the ackerman's angle to see how much toe out there is. If it out of spec something is bent, such as where the tie rod attaches to the knuckle.
