STF (Street Touring FWD) Alignment advice wanted
Alignment advice wanted
I know it's been covered in older posts, but I thought I'd raise the question again and get some current advice.
I have an 05 R53 that I intend to autocross, but it's also my DD. I'm installing Cross Coilovers with camber plates and will probably lower 1.5 inches or so. I have a 22 mm RSB set to stiff and am running 205/50 BFG's on stock 16" rims. I'll also be installing H-Sport adjustable rear camber links. I'll have an alignment next week and considering these settings for combined street and autox:
Front:
- 2.5 camber
0 toe
As much caster as possible
Rear:
- 1.5 camber
1/8 toe in
I'm a complete nube when it comes to alignment and the specs above are my distillation of many other post in the past.
Looking for advice from you much more experienced guys!
