I just put the wheels on my car and nothing makes u realize your alignment is outa wack more than huge diameter wheels. So after having to take my bumper off to get the car up on the alignment machine we get the tools on the wheels and the two front ones STILL cant read each other because the rad support was in the way. so after a little messing around with it we get it and basicly my alignment is pretty drunk.
Camber
-2 F
-2.5 LR
-2.1 RR
and i dont really remember the rest. i bought a spc camber kit but i dnt have enough time to put it on but its ok. with the stock arms we got to the following setup.
Camber
-2 F
-1.5 F
Toe out the front to 0.5 and 0 in the rear.
havnt had a chance to really get on the car the rear brakes are making a deathly sound which im going to do right now. Ill let everyone know how the car feels prob by wed.

its both
oh yea its got 19x9.5F 265-30 19x11 285-30 Toyo T1Rs.
The feathering problem occurred on the front tires, mainly due to the improper alignment (toe-in). The factory specs call for about 0.07 toe-in. You'll be find in the short term but probably ought to consider an alignment to correct it later.
I know that some people use out-of-spec alignments on dedicated track cars because they're willing to sacrifice wear for handling performance.
