Default Alignment Sugestions

Installing a set of Buddy Club RSD coilovers, with Ap2V1 wheels.

Looking for anyone running a similar setup to post suggested alignment specs for street and occasional track use

Thanks!

Bump.

Also, yes I have searched the under the hood, but those are pretty much just numbers to me and I have no idea what they mean

Well after some further reading (difficult to find the UK specs) I've decided to run this alignment:

Front:
Caster left 5*50"
Caster right 5*50"
Camber left -1*00"
Camber right -1*00"
Toe left 0*0"
Toe right 0*0"
Total toe 0*0"
Rear:
Camber left -2*00"
Camber right -2*00"
Toe left 0*20"
Toe right 0*20"
Total toe 0*40"

Thoughts?

I've been running -2.0 front and rear and total rear toe of 20" (I think). I'm happy with that setup so far. Your proposed setup would yield more understeer but be more forgiving in corners than mine. If it's a daily driver, -2.0 degrees of camber with wear unevenly, but alignments are always compromises.
