I aligned my GTO with the Tenhulzen alignment kit and only have ~1700 miles on my tire but the car drives straight, no pull, and no abnormal wear yet.

It doesn’t appear to have the sensor unit (the small box with the digital readout that senses changes in angle). Without that, I don’t see how you could check camber or caster. Odd that they mention those in the title

The home alignment kits are so-so. Contact the High Schools around you to see if they have an Auto Shop. After retirement I assist the Auto Shop teacher at my local high school. We welcome clubs to come in and show off their cars and we do free alignments on classic cars. Go to your district web site to see which school has an Auto Shop class and the teachers email address should be listed. It's a great way to teach alignments, especially since new cars have no front camber adjustment and all the parts are usually rust free.
