Default Alignment Suggestions

Hi all,

I just put in my suspension and am going to get my car aligned soon. What would be some moderate settings for toe and camber for the track? I am runnin the stock tire sizes:

215/45/17
245/40/17

but i will be upgrading soon to 225/255. I have no other suspension mods besides my F2 coilovers...and i'm a beginner on the track (only been once).

So if anyone has some alignment suggestions for that would be "solid" for my setup and experience, I'd appreciate it.

thanks!

Here is what most people do for moderate camber and toe settings:

Camber Front: -1.5 to -2.0
Camber Rear: -2.0 to -3.0

Toe Front: 0
Toe Rear: - 1/8"

ya, thats pretty much dead on.

I am going to go a tad more than 1/4 inch toe in on the rear my next alignment spec and see how things turn out. some of the autocross guys go as much as 3/8 inch toe in on the rear......but i know tire wear is going to suffer
