Just recently I bought Bridgestone RE 960AS tires 245/45/17 Ultra High Performance tires. My stock advans I actually still have a pretty good amount of tread even at 18,000 miles but due to the factory toe settings I have massive wear on the inner 1 inch of the tires.
Now my friend will be doing the tire swap and alignment for me. I plan on zeroing my Toe to avoid this type of tire wear for the future.
Should I just leave the stock alignment with zero (front/rear) toe or would you guys recommend a different setting to maximize performance ?

Also from what I have searched most say to get:
Front: -2 camber , 0 toe
Rear: -1 camber , 0 toe
Then there was some talk that the stock suspension might not get up to -2 but bring it as close to it as possible....
Any more imput, maybe over time there is better results with other alignment settings?

Any talk that the stock camber bolts cannot do -2 is ridiculous. There is a -1 and -2 camber selection. Will it be -2 exactly, maybe not, but if you are cutting hairs that closely you need your head looked at 
I am lowered and using the -1 bolt but seeing -1.7 on a rack.
But those setting you posted are good for an agressive daily driver. What are you uses?

I use my car as a daily driver. Since I will be getting an alignment zeroing my toe to avoid similar future "toe wear" , I figured possibly changing the stock camber settings for improvement from stock. Originally Posted by SmikeEvo

My evo is a daily driver, but I would like to do some auto cross or maybe road race in the future but nothing real hard core. Also so it could still be fun/better on the streets, not that I would be doing anything crazy on public roads.
My friend is a mechanic and will be hooking me up at the dealership. Since I got the chance to have it adjusted, I figured why not change it if it will handle better than stock. So I'm thinking having the front -2 camber or as close as it goes (-1.8), and rear camber -1.
I'm still a noob with suspension settings. But researching I found that a little less camber in the rear in respect to the front helps from understeering.
