it tough to say because it depends on a lot of other things too like what tire you use, the size, what kind of driving the tires mostly see, pavement, etc.

you might want to search or ask the uk guys what kind of mileage they got off their original stock tires and compare it with US guys.

only thing i know for sure is it will handle better and wear your tires faster...you'll have to find out how much faster.

 

Its funny how many people on here think they have a aggressive alignment when its really anything but lol.

I run over 2.5 front camber, over 2.8 rear camber, toe is within factory spec. I drive hard and ride height is 25" front middle fender to ground (tucking tire slightly) My tires afer 2 years of driving barely have any negative wear and 10,000km's later!

Im now on new tires and going next week for a even more aggresive alignment, woo, I cant wait!

Camber: -2.6 deg.
Caster : 6 deg
Toe: factory

Rear:

Toe: .25'' IN (factory)

I do a lot of HPDEs in the summer.

 

Front:
-1.8 Camber
Factory Castor (Had a problem with Brembo BBK rotors coming in contact with lower control arm in full lock due to too much dynamic positive camber on the inside wheel)
0 Toe

Rear
-2.5 Camber
1/4 inch total toe

 

can someone give me a little info on caster?

it seems the uk spec is considerably higher than most of the members here.
L/R 6.45

thanks.

 

so i did my alignment last night. had an issue with getting RF caster in where it needed to be. LF is at 6 andthe RF is at 8. gonna redue it today, any suggestions for caster? i see some of you guys running yours round 5.5 or so.

thanks in advance

 

So I know nothing about an alignment, but I need one. Is there a step-by-step for someone like me? I have to do it asap as everything is out of whack after changing the wheel bearings and I noticed a bad wear pattern on my front right tire in the process while my left front is fine.

 

What do you think of these alignment specs? My car is a weekend and track car

CR front lip
Spoon replica GT wing
17x9 45
255 NT05
BC Racing coils with 12k/12k springs
01 front sway, 05 rear sway

Camber
-2.2 degrees F
-2.8 degrees R

Toe
0F
2/16-3/16" toe IN rear

Caster
7.75 deg front

Thanks!

 

i need help adjusting my rear camber can some one tell me how to? and how to lock in those number degrees? do i need to take it to an alignment rack or can i Do it my self?

 

I think it's very well laid out. However, you forgot to mention if it's an AP2 or AP1.

Those are very similar settings to what I have on my AP1. BTW, 2/16'' can be expressed better as 1/8''.

Although, I have to ask...how did you manage so much caster with -2.2 degrees of camber? The most caster I could pull out of mine was right around 6.8 degrees with -2.3 degrees of camber.

My specs are

Car: AP1, KWV3s, Z1 starspecs 225/45F and 265/40R on 17X7.5F and 17X9R (+45 all around) ADVAN RG2. Daily driven in the summer. Plus lots of track/autocross time.

Front
Toe: 0
Camber (per side): -2.3deg.
Caster (per side): +6.8deg.

Rear
Camber(per side): -3.0deg
Toe(per side): + .045degrees (a little less than 1/8'')
