For Those w/ a Non-Staggered Setup
I just purchased a set of rear AP2 wheels, to put on the fronts for a non-staggered setup. I will couple the wheels with 4x 255/40/17 Toyo R1R tires. I run Tein RA coilovers (I believe the spring rate is 10 both front and rear).
My current suspension setup is:
Front:
Camber: -2.25
Toe: 0"
Max Caster
Rear:
Camber: -2.25
Toe: 3/16 in total
Should I alter my alignment with the new setup?
What alignment settings do the (fast) non-staggered drivers on S2KI have?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Fast non-staggered drive? That I don't know, but my alignment is:
Front Camber: -3.7
Front Toe: 0
Max caster
Rear Camber: -3.3
Rear Toe: 1/16" total
Pyrometer and tire wear observations suggest these settings are woking well...

Seems to be a lot of rear toe. What swaybars are you running? Just like Aaron, I also like 1/16th toe-in in the rear for my street/auto-x setup. I run a non-staggered setup 275x4 for auto-x. I adjust everything else (front swaybar, shocks, pressures) to compensate when there is too much oversteer. When I ran 1/8th toe-in, It seemed like I had to really throw the car to get it to rotate. Immediately after trying this, the car would respond with some uncontrollable/snap oversteer. It was very frustrating to figure out since there seemed to be no middle ground ... understeer then oversteer. 1/16th toe and a non staggered setup fixed this for me.
BTW, wheels look like they will be there tomorrow!

sirbunz, I am running a Comptech sway bar (the non-adjustable one) and a Comptech strut bar. Thanks for the wheels! UPS tracking says they should be here today...
innovation, I made an appointment early next week with a local shop who will widen the center bores on my wheels.
Later next week, mount the R1R's.
Next, next week, get fenders rolled.
Early September, hit up the track!!!
As you can tell, I'm pretty damn excited about my new setup...
