Default Alignment imput needed please!

So I just received a alignment today, need a second opinion on the outcome. In my opinion I have way to much toe in the rear. The tech said that it was max out the adjustment bolts can't go anymore!For some strange reason they weren't able to get a caster reading off my car weird?
SPEC:

Front
Camber: -1.10 FL, -1.25 FR
Toe: 0 FL, 0.5 FR

Rear
Camber: -3.0 RL, -3.0 RR
Toe: 0.50 RL, 0.45 RR

Overall the car feels better the rear feels more planted, front feels loose with hardly no understeer. Even tested on the way home take a 180 degree on ramp turn at 50mph. Felt very stable and planted to the ground, also am running a stagger setup of 18x8.5F and 18x9.5R on 245/40/18 around!!

What measurements are those (toe) mm or degrees, or inches?

You need a better alignment place if that's the best they can do.

^ YES!

Don't take chance on alignments. Tires are expensive. Front toe should be 0. Is that camber in the rear the least amount you can run? It seems more excessive than I would run in relation to the front.

Can't measure caster?!
