I wanted a "semi" street aggressive setup

He said the rear maxed out at -1.7

I wanted around -1.5

Dropped probably 2 in. on BC coilovers

Is this OK?

 

Yea looks good. Although you may want to make sure the rear toe is put to zero. But otherwise it looks like it should be fine!

 

Pretty normal for most X owners, since lots of people run between -1.2 and -1.7.
I have -2.0 in the front for track but if youre just daily driving it, youre good!

 

I would Zero the rear toe, and bump the camber up to 2.3-2.5 in the front. Or buy adjustable rear camber arms and run less rear camber. Having camber so close front to rear causes the rear to end up with too much grip (relative to the front), and the car pushes.

 

I agree but I guess it depends on how aggressive you drive and if you track it. Also other factors can affect balance such as coilover settings and spring weight, aftermarket front and rear sway bars, rake degree of the car. It's all a balancing act.

I am running about -2.5 front and -1.5 rear. Amazingly it didn't wear my AD08's as fast as I thought it would. They did end up showing metal on the inside edge but they lasted awhile. Plus I got lazy and hardly rotated them and didn't flip them on the rim.

 

-2.5f / -1.5r is more like an aggressive street alignment.

I run -3.1f on my Evo 10, works great for a heavy car. I went from -1.7r to -2.0r and it made a large difference in grip and stability on the track with my current setup.

Of course, every setup and driving method takes a slightly different take on alignment but honestly, like I said above, -2.5r / -1.5r is basically just a "good start" for an Evo.

With zero toe all around, tire wear is just fine. I ran -3.2f on my Evo 8 for years as daily/track use. I even ran it like that in the snow.
