Tracking -

Yesterday we had all new Michelin Delamaris tyres fitted by ATS. The deal was good and they provided a good service. Our Freelander 2 is only 1.5 years old and was the first of the face lifted versions.
I noticed recently the steering is pulling slightly to the left, and since changing the tyres its better but not perfect. The old tyres had worn very evenly.
ATS have given me the following figures and say the tracking needs doing:

Front left Camber -0.39, Right front Camber -0.51
Front Left Toe in - 0.13, Front Right Toe in -0.11
Rear Left Camber -1.88, Rear Right Camber -1.69
Rear Left Toe In 0.03, Rear Right Toe In 0.06

Not knowing much about Toe in or camber, are these figures anything to be concerned about (should I get the tracking done?) or is it ok to leave it?
We have owned the car from new and its never been knocked or in an accident. (touching wood) Confused

Thanks for your thoughts.

Sensible to get the figures! I have personally been present in a tyre shop (not ATS) where the boss told the operative to tell a (lady) customer that she needed the tracking doing, even though it was OK. Many tyre shops won't do LR tracking anyway.
