Alignment

Hello everyone and thanks for the help in advance! Here are my specs:

2006 IX MR
Blisten stock dampers
Swift lowering springs
Evo X GSR wheels
Hankook Ventus V12 245/35/18 all around.

Should I have a problem getting a decent alignment without any camber plates or any kind of adjustable suspension parts? Looking to get my toe close to 0.

Lastly, what should my alignment specs look like for daily/ocassional track use and can I achieve that with really no suspension mods done?

I was using this for reference but not sure how accurate it is being that I don't have an Evo X, just Evo X wheels/tires. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...fications.html

Any help much appreciated!

i got this from a thread on here somewhere~

Stock
The stock alignment is typically messed up when the car is first delivered, just like on the 8 and 9. It might be a good idea to get it checked.
Per the service manual the stock alignment is:
Front:
Toe-in: 0.07* (per side, 0.14 total)
Camber: -1* (per side, non-adjustable per the manual)
Caster: 4* (non-adjustable).

Rear:
Toe in: 0.06* (per side, 0.12 total)
Camber: -1* (per side)

"Aggressive Street" Alignment
The general consensus is:
Front:
Toe: 0*
Camber: -1.5* to -2* each side
Rear:
Toe: 0* (or the stock 0.06* toe in)
Camber: -1*

my next alignment i will b getting -2 front -1.5 rear
these can b achieved with just the stock camber bolts

Yeah I already seen this, I posted the link in my first post. Thanks for the help though, I do appreciate it.

I guess what I really need to know is, has anyone got a good alignment with swift springs/blisten combo and no additional mods?(camber plates,etc.)
