Alignment specs

[meangreen94z]

Anyone have suggestions on alignment specs. I'm more concerned with handling and high speed stability than I am tire wear(it only sees 30-50 miles in a month).

If your wondering about my suspension setup:
Koni SA shocks
Hotchkiss springs
Adjustable Panhard
35mm front swaybar, 22mm rear
stock upper and lower control arms
stock rear control arms
and I have 275's up front, 315's in the rear

Here is an earlier post of mine:

I dont remember my current final settings,
but this is what I told the guy to aim:
CAMBER: -1*
CASTER: +4.5
TOE: 0

If you want to go further, you can go more negative in the CAMBER and more positive in the CASTER. Some people are running -1.2* to -1.5* CAMBER and +5.0* to +5.5* CASTER. Thats a bit much for the street and harder to achieve with stock/unmodified parts (and will cause tire wear). Maybe those with more aggressive setups will chime in with their specific setups. TOE IN will improve high speed stability (the car will run straiter and wander less). TOE OUT will improve corner entry ease , but at the expense of high speed stability (the car may wander more).

I've run:

-1.3 camber
4.5 castor
1/32nd inch of toe out

Tire wear was good (30k out of front tires), handling was much better.

I now run:

-1.7 camber
5.2 castor
1/16 inch of toe out

Tire wear is much worse and I'm quite hard on the inside edges of the front tires. They will cord the inside edges long before the rest of the tire wears out.
