When I rebuilt the front end on my American and put new tires on it, I had a local shop align the front end. This shop works on alot of older cars, in fact that's all they would work on if they could make money at it as that's the owner's "first love"; anyway, he told me that the factory settings weren't correct for modern tires and he tweaked them some. To what, and which direction, I don't remember, but I had had another shop align it before that and was never satisfied. After the second time, it drove straight and handled the best I'd ever had it.
