Alignment setting?

What should toe, caster, and chamber, be set at. I have a car that will be used mostly for DE and auto crosses. The car has 7s and 8s and r compound rubber. 225 on fronts and 245 on rears. Car will occasionally be used on the street. riDE heights are 25 at front and 24.5 at rear.

I can get back to this post once I get home tonight and look at my spec sheet. I just had my car CB/align/ride height. The only difference is that I run street tires, 205/225s on my 7s and 8s.......

I have heard that people have problems running the 225s on the front too and it looks like my car with 22 torsions and koni shocks adjusted full hard now doesn't rub. Maybe just lucky so far. On track it might rub. If any one has pictures of were they cut there front fenders that would be nice too.

As much negative camber as you can get up front, and make them even. Usually -2.0

In the back, around -2.5

Caster, max, and even, usually +6.5

For auto-X, 1/16th to 1/8th toe-out in front and 1/8th toe-in in the rear.

A little less toe-out in front for track use than auto-X.


These are just guidelines, but it will be a good starting point.
