When adjusted, my shop could not get to the specified camber in the rear but did correct the toe.

Guess they had specs on their computer for the car, but I gave them a sheet with recommended settings.

I wonder how you can get the suspension within recommend specs?

OR a cheaper tire you're less worried about replacing frequently.
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.

OK, just got back from the alignment shop. He said he got as close as he could with adjustments available and maxed out settings on eccentrics. Was on 2001 C2 Cab with ROW M030 suspension and 18" wheels. Was getting excessive inside rear tire wear. Don't think it will get much better with the new settings, but should help some. Here are the numbers after adjustments:
LF. RF.
Camber. -30'. -42'
Caster. . 8 deg. 7 deg 48'
toe 0.9mm. 1mm
LR. RR
Camber. -1 deg 30'. -1 deg 36'
toe. 1.4mm. 1.6mm
Are these #s going to be OK for daily driver? Or do I need to get them adjusted more?
I had excessive rear tire wear and found the toe was out quite a bit. When adjusted, my shop could not get to the specified camber in the rear but did correct the toe. Much better with no apparent difference in wear between the inside and outside edges of the rears after about 5K miles.
It would help if you could post before/after values and highlight where your settings are outside of spec.
This is the print out. Seems like from online info that there is excessive negative camber all around. Also, not sure what the conversions are for toe in mm vs degrees. Guess they had specs on their computer for the car, but I gave them a sheet with recommended settings.
I see that the sheet has the C4 not C2 also and it is the Euro sport suspension, not US. This shop has zero experience with such cars. Very few Porsches in my neck of the woods.

That is similar to what I had. Too much toe and they couldn't quite get the rear camber within spec. I think you will have a pronounced improvement in rear tire life with the new settings as the toe being out is a bigger factor than a little too much camber. At least that is how mine worked out.
That's what I'm hoping for. Rears wearing out in about. 6-7k miles! Was getting a bit ridiculous. I put the suspension in about 15k miles ago. Bet some things settled out a bit. Thanks for the input!
I wonder how you can get the suspension within recommend specs? Do you have to buy adjustable drop and toe links? Makes no sense to me with a factory option suspension. Are Euro suspension links or chassis different from US models?
6-7k is a reasonable life for a set of rear summer tires. If you want longer tire life at the expense of performance, consider a longer-wearing tire like an all-season or higher treadwear tire than you're currently running... OR a cheaper tire you're less worried about replacing frequently.
You can get adjustable links to take some rear camber out, but be careful taking too much rear toe out as it will become a lot more lively.
