Well, since I've done all this stuff now, I need to get my wheels aligned. Anybody have some good aggressice street specs I can give them. Kinda don't want to just go back to stock.








Know what I'm sayin?

Camber -1
Caster +4,5
Toe 0,0

is what I have. Can't hurt to try to get a bit more negative camber (-1 is max negative what I can get) when you're running on the track from time to time...

Careful with too much negative camber up front. Apart from the problems of tire wear and that the car becomes very nervous in a straight line (how do I know that!), you increase the front end traction, which means that the tail will come around quicker. No problem if you are a good driver, but not so good if you are dozing along.

-2deg, But my tires are cheap any ways so I don't mind going through 3 or 4 sets a year.
