So I'm getting an alignment this upcoming Friday and I'm wondering what are some good specs for a DD with occasional aggressive street driving.

I've looked around a bit and these are the number I've came up with. Are they good?

Max Caster
0 Toe all around
-2.0 Camber front
-1.5 Camber rear


These numbers can be achieved without camber bolts correct?

I need to go back in for mine- Do not like how the car handles with my currant settings.

I started a thread for people to post up different settings:

Unless your car is lowered or you already have some type of extra adjustments then you won't be able to achieve the -2.0 Camber up Front. The Max I've seen on stock adjustment for the Front (non-lowered) is around -1.5 Camber for the Front.

If you do have extra adjustment (Camber Plates, Camber Bolts, White Com C strut tops, etc) already on your car then yeah you should be able to achieve those numbers without too much of a problem.

Otherwise, I do run a pretty similar setup:

0 Toe all around
-1.8 Front Camber
-1.4 Rear Camber (I was more concerned about the rears being even than anything else)

I'm lowered on Swift Spec R's with Whiteline Com C tops up front and Camber Bolts in the Rear (again just to make sure everything is even in the rear). I still had plenty more room to adjust in the front, but didn't want too aggressive for the front since I DD my car and do mostly Freeway Driving. My tire wear is really even across the tires with this setup for what it's worth.

Oops forgot to mention my car is also lowered on RCE Yellows.

I'm thinking about getting camber bolts for the rear just in case but I don't know if I really need them.

You can't do much about the rear camber since these cars don't come with a way to adjust it stock. You might as well get bolts for the rear.

Definitely not a bad idea to have a spare set of Camber Bolts ready to go in case you do need them for the alignment. They are cheap.

I got the set of Ingalls from Summit Racing (Good Price & Free Hat with purchase. ).

I'm using a set of the Ingalls for the rear as well. I got my from amazon.com (cheaper than Summit Racing when I got mine, but no free hat )

That's a fairly aggressive setup. How come you're running that much Camber on front and rear? Is your car a track car?

for the most part yes. The only time I drive it on the street is onto a trailer.
