4 Wheel Alignment specs

[Lee]

Stops the outsides wearing!! This has been a major problem on my front tyres until I increased the neg camber.

I get pretty even wear with those settings now. Its a drive it like you stole it thing and such neg camber works fine for me.

Hows the front tyre wear at -1.5 then ?

I stick with stock RS2 settings and 1.5 neg camber up front. Works for me and suits my setup & driving style.

As for tweaks - Lee is much better qualified to talk to this as he tried various settings on his Avant...

But my liking is always for more NEGATIVE camber at the front - it improves turn-in response - too much -ve camber and yoy get silly tyre wear.

The important thing to watch on all other specs is you get them EVEN. Lets say the spec is 1-5 degrees for something. Don't let your alignment place say its in spec if they get 1 degree on one side and 5 on the other - get them even on each side for best handling balance.

Another tip is not to do the measurements with an empty drivers seat !

If anybody has any tweaks i would love to hear...
