Default B Street Alignment

I did a search and didn't see any alignment recommendations for B street cars (only B stock with race tires). I have an 06 that I run in BS with an Eibach sway bar and 225/255 RS3s. I am happy with the way the car feels but, have no clue what the alignment is. I am planning on getting an alignment soon. Can someone recommend alignment specs? I know that I want max camber in front with matching camber in the rear. I think that I want zero toe in the front and a little toe in in the rear.

The cars I have driven are the same alignment as with Hoosiers (or autox FAQ), but with less front bar. If you notice, whether Stock, ST, SP, or higher, the alignments are very similar in general. Besides tires, a good FSB will net you the most return. Do not go with too much camber variance front to rear or you will induce too much push. Also, there is lots of info on A/B street S2000s if you look, this will get you started...

Can we nominate Marc for S2000 R&C member of the year or something? He ALWAYS helps out the newbies with their questions.

You're the man Marc.

Thanks Nick, some days I'm more patient and have more to give than other days. On rare occasion, I remember how guys like Hui, Stewart, Collette, Wynveen, etc helped me out on here with the collection of info. Scary this happened almost 10 years ago when I got my first S! Nothing like trolling the forums or gaming while waiting on the shoulder to heal!
