I one excited sob! I just got my Rota DPT's installed with Fortune-Auto purple titanium lug nuts. They look amazing. Anyways I have an appointment on Monday for an alignment and was wondering what the specs should be so I don't mess things up. I'm on stock suspension and stock ride height and the specs on the wheels are 17x 9 + 35 with 255/40/17 Potenza RE-760's. I want to make sure the alignment is spot on and make sure the guys at the shop do it right.

Thanks guys

 

What are your goals?

 

This is my daily driver I just want even tire wear. On my last set of tires the inside of the tire wore out really fast while the rest of the tire had a lot of thread left. I already had the alignment done a few days ago, I'll post up the sheet I got so you guys can tell me if it's good or bad.

 

If you have 0 toe and you rotate the tires once a month you should be fine pretty much regardless of camber.*

* emphasis on pretty much

 

If youre on stock suspension theres not too much you can do about camber. The upper knuckle bolt has basically 2 postions so you can only go so far negative. Id shoot for -1-1.5 deg camber but the stock camber is probably close. If you want to track the car, try flipping the bolt 180 deg to get more negative camber but make sure the toe is spot on. 0 toe front and rear.

Edit: didnt realize you already had the alignment done. Hope they did a good job.

 

The print out is pretty dim, they ran out of ink. This is what I can see

Front left: camber -1.1
toe -0.01

Front right: camber -0.9
toe -0.03

Rear left: camber -0.9
toe 0.16

Rear right: camber -1.1
toe 0.14

Something tells me I should have them redo it......
So I should have 0 toe all around?

 

I'm going in a couple of days to have them re do it. I've been doing some searching and asking some local car nuts and came up with some advice. What to run it with the evom gurus and see what you think because I don't want to destroy another set of tire because of bad alignment. This is what I came up with:

-1.5 camber front
-1.25 camber rear
0 toe all around

 

The camber idea would work, but when i do alignments at work(acura dealer) i like to put passenger side front toe at -.10 and driver side 0.0 but could also be because the road crown in new jersey. other then that i try in middle of spec

 

Thanks
Any more input?
