Default Alignment Print Out

I've attached the alignment sheet for my '14 C2 (no PASM). The tech recommended increasing the front camber beyond Porsche recommended specs for improved handling (with no real downside). Supposedly the PASM cars run more camber than the non-PASM cars. Is it more complicated that simply adding more front camber? Do the suspension geometries dictate that less camber is better in this car, or is Porsche simply recommending little camber in the front to provide more understeer?

Thanks

It's too bad I can't find my print out when I was having premature tire wear to see what the settings were.

The camber was out and I only got a little over 9K miles out of the front tires before they were so noisy they had to be replaced.

I'm on my 2nd set of tires after the alignment was set back to where it needed to be "all in the green" and they have worn evenly with very little to no road noise.

Camber settings are a trade off. I'm a long distance driver compared to a weekend canyon carver.
