well the R is getting some tires here soon as they suck ass (195/50-15 Toyo Proxes4's). looks like im gonna be trading some crap im not gonna use for some 205/50-15 Azenis RT615s.

anyway. i have adjustable all kinds of shits lol. so i think before we set my fronts at -1.7* and the rears at -.5 or -.7*... not sure on toe or caster settings. i know i got a print out, dont remember what i did with it (over a year ago). i would call my driving spirited street driving. tires wear perfectly flat, even though i drive 50miles a day. i will probably be driving it harder once i have tires that dont feel like they are gonna roll off the rim...

suggestions on what i should be running? or am i good with this? ill double check my tire measurements with a gauge if i remember soon.


suspension run down:
Tien RE's
Skunk2 front UCA
SPC rear UCA
Azenis RT615 (205/50-15)
Full Race traction bar

FYI off the factory floor the only thing we can adjust on our caRs is the Toe. With Skunk2/etc type UCA's you can adjust the camber.

If you are only going to be driving on the street (no AutoX, track, etc) I would keep your alignment relatively mild. OEM specs are:

Front Camber: +/- 1 degree
Front Total Toe: (0 +/- 1/16'')

Rear Camber: -.045-1.15 degree
Rear Toe: (1/16 +/- 1/16)

You can use them as a baseline.
