JCW Coil Over Front and Rear Alignment Specs

I have an 06 JCW with megan coil overs lifted 1" with the H-sport links. Alignment machine does not have front specs. Any help with Caster or Camber numbers would be greatly appreciated.

You didn’t mention if you had these but without adjustable camber & caster plates it’s kind of a moot point because you get what you’re dealt. The stock range for front camber is -0.1 to -0.9 degrees and for caster 5.3 to 4.3 degrees. The only thing you could adjust up front would be toe and that range is 0.13 to 0.18 degrees with 0.15 as the middle ground. BTW, in the past my caster setting has always been out of spec towards narrow, worse on the passenger side.

Thank you

Thank you for your reply. Yes, we have adjustable plates up top along with M7 caps. Any other suspension help would be very helpful to me as a novice with this car.
