Yes. You want zero toe in at the front. The car will be much more neutral with zero toe in the rear, but more prone to lose the rear in the wet.

A good all round setup including for those who wish to autox......-1.5 camber up front -1 camber in rear...zero toe all around. I run this along with the 25mm Progress rear bar and 245/45/17 on the street.

Contrary to what some people will tell you, camber is not what kills the front tires, toe is the real culprit.

One side benefit to zero toe....since the tires are actually going straight you have less power lost to drag. David Buschur had a thread about this late last year. Having a great alignment picked up ~ 10 whp for him. It amazed him enough that he went out and bought very expensive alignment equipment and recommends ti to all the 1/4 miler on here.

Yes.

It's not toe that causes the rear to be loose in the wet but your rear sway bar. In wet or snowy conditions put your rear sway in a softer setting to avoid any snap oversteer.

 

those are good info guys. someone should do a write up explaining that and make it a sticky.

 

so stupid question probably.. in order to set the toe and the camber correctly this would have to be done with an alignment machine right? there is no way to do it yourself?

 

i don't know, i would think you'd need the alignment machine. Don't think you can accurately measure the angle yourself. unless you take a string and... oh never mind...

 

Good thread, wish I would have seen it when I got mine 2nd owner at 7000 miles, now it's 11,000 and OMG when I looked at the front tires lol

Is needing an alignment anyways a good reason to buy coilovers?
