4.7 Vantage Wheel Alignment?

Hi All,

So I've been driving my car for about 2 months with the new summer tires and I have to say it's just not driving like it used to. The traction is off, I can't drift the tires like I used to, and the car behaves strangely on turns (it's not confident on the turn). I had some wheel shop do my alignment that was also doing my tires...I expected that as long as they have the specs they can pull it off but suspect this isn't the case.

Before I head off to the dealership to shell out $$ for a full alignment would anyone know the specs?

I currently am set at :
Left front:
Camber-0.5 Caster 4.9 Toe -0.9
Right Front:
Camber-0.5 Caster 4.8 Toe -0.9

Total front toe -.18
Total Rear toe .42
thrust angle -.01

Left Rear:
Camber -1.8 Toe .20
Right Rear:
Camber-1.8 Toe 0.22

Would anyone have the stock recommended specs to make sure they weren't off?

I had my car aligned at the dealer and I can tell you they farmed the job out to an alignment shop.
Any decent alignment shop should be able to align the Aston Martin
