Thanks. Lot of food for thought in here. Will try the car out on 6/2 and move from there

FWIW I run maxed out front and rear camber (on the stock adjusters), as close to max front castor as possible (trying to keep them relatively even), no front toe and about 1/16 total rear toe. I still am eating up the outside edges of the kooks but I am track only and really need some camber adjusters to even things out.
Perhaps with the street mileage as well you might consider the U.K. specs. A little more aggressive than U.S. spec but not totally out there. They are available with a quick search of the site.

The UK specs are basically what I run. I added 1/2 degree negative camber in the front. (I'd have to check my rear toe, I may have altered that too.)

Mark, thanks for the posting that chart....I wonder if we could get it added to the reference thread in the sticky section for future questions.
