How do you guys feel about the following alignment specs?

With me in the passenger seat (195 lbs) and 1/2 tank of gas:

Camber:
-1.25 front
-1.25 rear

Caster:
+8.0 front
---- rear

Toe-in (total):
1/16" front
1/8" rear


These are the specs I usually use on most of my cars. It's basically the "sportiest" setting while maintaining the least tire wear. Good for street use, and maybe some canyon runs....

Will this be ok in regards to tire feathering on my 04 Z ? I do mostly highway driving, if that makes any differences. I just do not want to go through tires twice a year

Gonna be taking the car to Westend Alignment on Monday, so would appreciate some constructive feedback before I take my Z in.

 

For reference, one of my old sheets:

 

These are conservative numbers. Do not understand toe-in numbers.

 

I would go around -1.8 in the rear, you will still have great wear.

 

Hmm...
For me, I'm -1.3-Front, -2.1-Rear & Toe-0.

 

bumpppp

 

I think the rear toe is a little out of spec. I believe the tolerable range is .02 - .10. As for your camber, I would think you would get better handling and still maintain great tire wear with -1.5 to -1.7.

 

any other advice? going today at 3pm...

 

how is your tire wear? tire feathering?

 

Just noticed that rear toe-in is total...you are looking great there. Just add a little more negative camber in the rear and you'll be good.

 

Front should be toe-out instead of toe-in

 

what #s does that generate?

 

No issues thus far, and this is on NYC's horrid roads...
Going to change it up again once I replace my front/rear bushings.
