Post up ur Alignment specs.

I would like to see what type of alignment people are running out there. So if you could post ur specs, suspension setup, what u use the car for (DD, Track etc,etc) and how do you like that alignment. If u have a print out that would b even better and if u think the shop did a good job aligning ur car maybe u could put the name of the shop(especially in illinois). I know I can't be the only one who want to know this. Then again, maybe it's just me.

I did search. I just thought it would be nice having a thread where people could post their alignments specs and what shops they were going to, instead of all these "what do u think of this alignment?" threads, that only help that one person. For instance I finally find a shop to do my Illinois: GRD in Villa Park. They put me at -1.7* fr, -1.2* rear with 0* toe. That's good to know info, cause I went 3 different shops prveiously.

I run negative 2.5* in the front and negative 1.5* in the rear. I ask for zero toe and normally get it down to .05 which to me is close enough.

I run this camber setting on the street with the stock AO46 Advans and on the track with BFG R1s. I have played around with more aggressive camber settings but the most I could tolerate on the street is negative 3.5* as then the car gets very sensative to steering inputs.

speaking of shops-
NTB in the DFW area varies shop by shop
my shop in Mansfield was willing to custom tune alignment to sell me their 3yr warranty align.
then later the first year, they denied me an alignment, saying "we can only do an OEM spec align?"
I had to go to Grapevine Mall location to a tech willing to do a custom spec alignment

Street EVO Alignment

I'm really liking this for a street car only alignment:

Front Toe: zero
Front Camber: -1.0 deg
Rear Toe: zero
Rear Camber: -0.5 deg

Been on this set-up for a year now. Should have done it sooner. Very smooth. No tramming. Neutral handling. Toss-able. Extremely even tire wear.
