Okay guys I just changed my wheel and tire set up, and of course got an allignment afterwords.

The car feels pretty good but feels like it's slightly fish tailing on uneven pavement.

I was wondering if it's bad for the front camber to be off by .4 degrees on the front wheels?

I'm running 18x10's +22 on 265/35 up front.

How do these numbers look?

do you have front upper control arms and rear camber arms?

No FUCA's, I do have rear camber arms though

i would suggest getting them then, kinetix are the cheapest and easiest to adjust.....

The uneasiness is coming from the rear, I think my toe should be increased a little

maybe, i am not 100% in my thinking but it could be wobbly feeling from the front being off. i think it goes hand in hand, did you do the toe bolts with the rear camber arms?

Cjw4050

Yes spc toe bolts and camber arms.

Someone told me the rear total toe should be around .18-.2

technically you are "in spec" now

hopefully a suspension god will chime in... i don't remember what my spec are

The front camber should be fine, evening it up won't do much. What rear tires are you running?

I'm running 285/35/18's

18x11 +16

A guy told me my toe is in spec but it would be better if it was more in the center of the spec,

Like .09 or .1

Take a pic of your LCA bushings

Your alignment seems fine...toe all around is also fine. Those numbers should not be contributing to instability...fyi 0.05deg is the min rear spec per the FSM iirc

Assuming all else is ok I would look at your tire choice, or you can dial in less rear camber....seems like its just getting a little skatey under power over uneven pavement when changing directions giving you a lack of confidence in the rear. Am I correct? "Fishtailing over uneven pavement" - any FR config with moderate power is going to have that issue lol

Also you didn't say what make/model tire it is. Another HUGE factor in how it feels, just cause its 285 doesn't mean it grips. How much are you dropped?

And as terrasmak is alluding to it could be blown bushings.

They're continental sport contacts.

I had this problem right after I installed my rear camber arms/toe bolts but then took the car to a professional allignment shop that cost me over $400, after that the problem went away. This was on 285/35/19 too(michelin pilot sports)

Now that I've switched my wheel set up it has come back but not nearly as bad as before.

I did have the front of the car on jack stands and had it sitting on the rear wheels for about a week, could that cause something like this?

^Unlikely.

Well you're using good tires so scratch that off the list.

Did the $400 magical alignment shop give you a printout before and after? Did they do anything other than align?

Cjw4050

Unfortunately they did not. They said they cornered weighted (corner balanced) it or something to that effect. Could that be causing this?

I also only ever feel it on the highway.

I had that feeling on a new set of hankook V12s, it went away within the first couple hundred miles as the tires wore in. I'd say give it a little time and see how it feels, as of now your alignment seems to be perfectly fine, there definitely should not be any drivability concerns from it, I would correct the front camber for tire life reasons but it should drive nicely like that.
