what is the stock alignment setting? would the garages usually have them? or is it in our manual? if we do a coilvover, do we still use the stock settings afterwards?

Also I had an aggressive alignment once, killed the tires in no time. The increase in handling isn't worth buying new tires every 6000 miles. I quickly went back to stock settings.
I noticed several things: 1) The back end didn't want to come around at all. 2) The car is more of a handful at high speed if you have to make a quick maneuver. 3) It gave me a faster turn-in response. 4) It also causes the tire wear to increase dramatically on the inside edges.
At first, I didn't like it at all on the highway. After several weeks, I grew accustomed to the feel. It did make my Kumhos feel "almost" like OEM tires. This setup is not for everyone, but if you don't mind the extra tire wear, give it a try.
I just ordered a new set of wheels and tires, so I wanted to go back to the OEM alignment settings. I like them better than the UK settings. I prefer the rear end to be controlled by the throttle.
