Street wheel alignment.

[Aram]

Hi,

I'm looking for a good street alignment for my car.
I tried a search but all that turns up is drift alignments.

The local garage only has the fwd AE82 alignment on hand.

-1/-1,5° camber, 3-4° caster, 0 toe

Ok, thanks mate.
Is this from the manual or your own experience?

I've been driving with the same setup since last summer. Except my camber settings are around -2°. Car sticks on the road.

You dont have extra tyre wear with -2 camber?

[McKenney]

I run -2 degrees camber, 3.5 degrees caster, o degrees toe. no excess tire wear and real responsive.

A little but nothing excessive.

2.5 camber
2.5 caster (if manual rack) 3.5 caster (power rack)
0 toe. or 1mm toe in.

Toe is what wears tires fast. Camber not so much.

From own expercience, you can add a bit of negative camber for sportier driving, but this was my daily driving setup.

Toe depends on the bushings used as well
Big low offset wheel + rubber bushings = big moment of contact patch drag component around + rubber compliance = toe-out at speed and under braking.
