I have lowerd my car with KW v'2s and have H Sport rear lower control arms .I am due to have the car 4 wheel aligned etc but as no one near me who offers this service has a mini im concerned they will make it worse.The front end has modified lower wish bones and so the negative camber has been increased but is fixed.I am happy with the front end camber but am not sure what camber is best for the rear.Obviously both back and fron toe angles might need adjusting but what set up should i ask for.

 

Depends on what the front ended up at... But, IMHO, -1.5 all around is a more conservative (yet very fun) setting for the street, neutral toe in front and slight toe in for the rear. This assumes you have more than the factory adjustment in the rear (e.g. adjustable lower control arms).

 

I run -2.0° camber up front, and -1.6° camber in the rear. Toe-in is set at -0.05° front and back. This set up works really well for me. I have IE adj plates, 4 IE adj rear control arms, and the 22mm Alta bar on stiffest. I cant really comment on tire wear yet since its only been about 2000 miles. But I could care less about tire wear, taking highway cloverleafs in excess of highway speeds, while not even nearing the limits, makes it all worth while.

 

cheers i have adjustable lower rear arms and fixed front camber but my front end has ben profeshionaly modded to give more neg camber which which works fine just want to make sure the back is set up to complement the front.I will let you know what the front is when i find out myself.

 

I prefer something in the -1 to -1.25 range in the rear to go with my -2.5 up front. And that's with my Webb extreme rear bar and rear biased spring rates. If I was just interested in street use I'd be in the -1.25 to -1.4.
