Street wheel alignment?

[haydenz]

Going in to get new tyres/alignment tomorrow......any suggestions.

Its going to be used for street and twistes every now and then.

Running

Coilovers
xt130 LCA's
Ps Arms
Lockspacer

Any help would be appreciated.

I've had a look at the grip alignments....it seems like everyone is running neg 2 and greater.....I want my fronts to last a little bit.

Thanks

toe is the main contributor to tyre wear, not just camber itself.
get 0 toe, -2 camber and 4ish pos caster thats what im running with a similar setup to yours and the car is very responsive.

yer avoid toe in.

id even say -1.5deg camber

im going for a wheel alignment today and im just gonna say 0 tie, -1.5deg camber.

and i set the castor my self untill it felt good, so am just gonna tell them to make them the same. ill be interested to see what value it is, i think its a fair bit though.

a bit of toe in is fine not more than 3 deg though.front wheel drive youd set to 0 rwd a bit of toe in.

^ toe is measured in mm, dono about running toe in though, never tried it.
i have tried toe out and the response is sick but at the cost of tyre wear. im sticking to 0 total toe

[haydenz]

yea just went
-2.25 camber
+4 castor
+-0 toe

seems good, just have to mount the bumper a tad forward

max castor arms out -2.5 camber and toe.. really up to your profession

When you change caster it will put your toe out (in) so get the caster right first then get a wheel alignment or your wasting moneys

sorry yeah mm,and he is right about the castor,especially if you are gunna max it out,

might need to hack your front bar or add spacers if your going to max out your castor.

-2 to -3 is good and 0 toe is boss.
