When the alignment on a vehicle needs to be corrected there is a certain way to go about the repairs. The rear alignment should be check and set first on account of the rear, not only, being simpler but setting the vehicle up for the front alignment to be done easier.

Why does the rear passenger tire on my 2000 Ford Focus SE vibrate eventhough I have replaced it and gotten a 4-wheel alignment?

Confirm that the wheel rim is not bent. If it is, the person installing the tire should have told you this. Confirm that the wheel bearing is not damaged. If so, the person who performed the alignment should have told you this. Confirm that this is not a brake related issue. Are you completely sure that you've definitely got a vibration problem at the passenger side rear tire? Check the 'Actual' against the specifications for rear toe on the alignment printout. If this is a Focus wagon, sheck the rear shocks. If this is not a wagon, check for any broken springs at all four corners.


Beretta rear wheel alignment?

Wheel alignment should be done by a professional shop. Some places (Town Fair) will not align the rear wheels on a Beretta/Corsica due to ridiculous shop policy, but they canbe done. First, ask around to see if a shop near you installs shims for alignment. Shims of proper size/thickness will need to be installed in specific areas behind the wheel bearings in order to properly adjust the rear wheels. If alignment is extremely out-of-spec, you may have a bad wheel hub, or a bent rear beam. The shop will tell you if this is the case, as they should be replaced.

Does a front wheel drive car need back wheel alignment?

If it is out of specification the rear, yes. If it is in specification, no. Makes sense, doesn't it! Some cars have adjustable alignment angles in the rear, and do indeed call for a four-wheel alignment. On many cars, there are no rear adjustments, but the front wheels should be aligned with respect to the rear, what is properly called a thrust-angle alignment. Unfortunately, many shops are not careful with their terminology and use the term "four-wheel alignment" when they really mean "thrust-angle alignment." Even so, they usually correctly distinguish between cars that have alignable rear ends and those that don't, and price the job accordingly. As to whether your car has an alignable rear end, you'll need to refer to a shop manual to find out.
