Ok from memory I started the string line to get close. But this works by jacking up the wheels spin them and use chalk down the middle and then get a fine nail to score and give you a fine and clean line to work to. next move the car back and roll it forward a few meters [ so the wheels track]. You then slide it too the back the wheels find the line you scored on the tyre. Adjust and put the points right on the lines you've scored on the tyres, lock it off . Now move to the front put one point on one line of a tyre and then you should have your 1/8" or 1/16" [whatever the setting should be ] more on the other tyre so the tyre is in. Adjust to get it, try a few times.
