Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I'll help you out, but be careful what you ask for as I use the car for autocross and while I do drive it on the street, I probably drive a bit more...sideways than most.

For the rear, you can run at most about -2.2, but I would recommend 1.7-2.0ish.

That's how I run my car but if you aren't willing to be disciplined with the throttle it can get you in trouble.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Installing new rims and rear tires Saturday so taking opportunity to align as well. I need some help figuring out alignment specs to give installer. Car is 2004 40th Anniversary Edition on 030 suspension w/ 235/40/18x8" fronts & 295/30/18x10.5" rears. Street use but very "spirited" street use

POST 2Original post

I'll help you out, but be careful what you ask for as I use the car for autocross and while I do drive it on the street, I probably drive a bit more...sideways than most. See my sig picture, I guess. Maximum camber in the front, period. It's only around -0.7 degrees at most. For the rear, you can run at most about -2.2, but I would recommend 1.7-2.0ish. The caveat of running all that negative camber is that you will wear the rear tires quickly unless you try to get as close to zero toe as possible. Running zero toe will make the rear end very loose off throttle, so be warned. I also try to put in just enough toe in in the front to take the slack out of the steering and keep the car going straight. So basically as little as the machine can measure/the mechanic can adjust. That's how I run my car but if you aren't willing to be disciplined with the throttle it can get you in trouble.

POST 3Original post

Out of curiosity, what camber did you get in the front? I have a pretty similar alignment to knfeparty.

POST 4Original post

I believe this is factory street alignment. https://rennlist.com/forums/8528817-post9.html

POST 5Original post

I can scan my spec sheet next week when I get back to FL, but that sheet looks reasonable.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
