Alignment settings?

[JGriff]

I know that this has probably already been discussed at great length, but what alignment settings are you using, and under what conditions i.e. all street, mostly street/some track, or all track?

I looked through the receipts on my "new" S2, and the PO had it primarily set up for the track... at -2.5 degrees camber up front.

For me, and my intended purpose at this point (i.e. primarily street, with maybe one or two DE events or autocrosses per year), I feel that 2.5 degrees of negative camber is too much.

Should I just go to OEM stock settings, and will that be okay for the type of driving I am planning? Or is there a setting with a slight mod (i.e. -0.5 degrees camber) that is better suited for spirited street driving and minimal track/auto-x use?

FWIW, I tried doing a search, and for whatever reason, it came up blank. I think it may have something to do with my accessing/searching via my work PC vs. my home PC. I apologize if this is a redundant topic for which no one wants to re-open for discussion.

Thanks.

I took a quick glance, and it looks like a great article. I’ll read it in more detail later.

One question, though… the camber shows 3/4 degree front and 1 degree rear. There isn’t a negative sign in front of the numbers. Can I assume that they meant negative 3/4 and negative 1? I would think so… since I wouldn’t imagine a recommendation of positive camber.

Thanks!!

That would be a safe assumption.
