Default X74 Alignment Recommendations

For a 2003 C2 Coupe. I have a question for those of you who have the X74 suspension. I drive on the street all year and do 2-4 DEs and autocrosses each season: What would be your recommendation for front and rear camber?

Factory camber settings are: F -30' R -1 deg 40'

I am thinking: F -1 deg R -2 deg

Apart from tire wear, what other negatives?

I'd go as negative as you possibly can in the front with very little or zero toe-in at the front.

Then go ~.5 more negative camber in the rear than in the front. Rear toe is a whole other debate. I like quite a bit to combat bump steer under load. Others don't like as much.

**edit**. If you can't get -1 in the front I'd still set the rear at -1.5 degrees. Kinda breaks my rule of .5 degree more in the rear but you really don't want any less negative camber than that in the rear.

What he said. I have same setup, same car as you. Go max neg camber up front, then -0.5 degree more negative in back, or -1.5, whichever is greater. I was only able to get -0.4 up front.
