For those of you that are running -3.0+ camber in the front, do you have that "numb" feeling in the steering?
I only have -2.25 up front and the feeling of the steering not wanting to re-align itself back to "straight", in addition to the "numb" feeling, gives me lack of confidence, not allowing me to drive the car as aggressively as before.
Thanks.

I do have a different setup than my last and here are the previous and current setups:
Previous Setup:
Wheels: Enkei RPF1 (17x8 +45 F; 17x9 +45 R)
Tires: Dunlop Direzzas Z1 Star Spec (235/45/17 F; 255/40/17 R)
Alignment:
- Front Camber: -1.5
- Front Caster: 6.2 (I asked to max out)
- Front Toe: 0.0
- Rear Camber: -2.25
- Rear Toe: 0.24" Total (IN)
Current Setup:
Wheels: Enkei RPF1 (17x9 +45 F; 17x9 +45 R)
Tires: Dunlop Direzzas Z2 (245/40/17 F; 255/40/17 R)
Alignment:
- Front Camber: -2.25
- Front Caster: 6.8 (I asked to max out)
- Front Toe: 0.0
- Rear Camber: -2.5
- Rear Toe: 0.25" Total (IN)
Difference:
Wider Front Wheel: 8" to 9"
Wider Front Tire: 235/45 to 245/40
Front Camber: -1.5 to -2.25
Front Caster: 6.2 to 6.8 (Asked to max out on both occasions. Same as you thought, figured more caster would help with return to straight but didn't to my surprise.)
Rear Camber: -2.25 to -2.5
Hope this is enough info.
Thank You.
