Alignment Specs (I want good handling without the bad tire wear)
What do you guys think is a good alignment for a street setup? I'd like better handling but I don't want the tire wear increased TOO much.
-0.5, -0.7, -1 degree camber? How much toe out?
Let me know what you guys think.

-.5 to -.8 Degree Camber both sides
Toe is in, not out & I think it's .1 Degree
In other words, FACTORY SPECS up to the max negative camber.
If you go toe out and negative camber your outside tire will squeal around turns and you'll chew up the inside of the tires in record time. It does not handle better.

You got it! I was at -.8 camber but the car tends to follow the road imperfections to much. I'm at -.4 now and it tracks the straighline much better. I honestly didn't notice any change in handling, it always handles great, thanks to the AGX's.
