FYI, the squares you see are a degrees sign. For some reason it doesnt translate over when I copy and paste from an outside source.

 

 

I have the UK spec on my AP1, it felt much more planted afterwards.

I haven't noticed terrible tire wear, but from all consensus they do wear faster.

 

wouldn't total toe 0 deg 40 min = 0.67 degrees (0.33 per side)

 

Anyone with input on an AP2 with the UK alignment?

 

Perhaps this out there somewhere already but it would be great to have a FAQ for this. Maybe something that lists the following:

Ex.
MY: 2000
Suspension modifications: 1" drop on Tanabe GF210, OEM AP2 wheels and tires
Alignment Specs: UK alignment
Desired results: DD and occasional Auto-X
Opinions: Feels great, tires wore on inside approx 5k faster then USDM alignment

Might be easier for people in the future to get an idea of what will work for them and what to expect when doing a non US standard alignment.

 

I have the UK alignment on an '08, but don't have enough miles on the car to talk about tire wear - I am running RE-01R's. Will be happy to get 10k miles.

Back end is harder to kick out from what I can tell so far.

 

I ran hankook rs2's with us alignment. my tires wore evenly and the rears lasted roughly 12k+.

got a new set of rs2's for the rear, lowered the car with espelirs, and now running uk alignment. im at roughly 10k now and still got a little tread left. i should hit 11k+ just fine and tires do seem to be wearing quite evenly.

so from my personal experience, i am going to get roughly the same mileage with uniform wear with uk alignment.

 

Thanks, I couldn't find the UK alignment when I did mine.

 

Not a clue. I just got it from searching.
