Default Alignment for Ap1 with Ap2 wheels

Hi all , I want to get the alignment done for my S since I changed my wheels (to Ap2s) and it has been a while since the last alignment. Should I go with the factory alignment specs of AP1 or AP2 or custom specs ? I've searched the forums and am more confused than before ,please suggest me ... Thanks !

wheels shouldn't dictate alignment. Ultimately what you want from your tires should...

Different size wheel or offset tires will not affect your alignment. It will however affect your car's behavior. Get an alignment specifically for autox and then return your alignment back to something more practical for daily driving (more tire life).
