Abstract
An apparatus for measuring toe-in of front wheels of a motor vehicle. The apparatus includes units for measuring the inclination of corresponding wheels. The units are connected to a circuit displaying a value indicating lateral offset distance between the respective rear and front of each front wheel. Thus, equal distribution of toe-in to the right and left wheels is easily realized when the steering wheel is at the center position.
