Wheel alignment 996rs
Would appreciate some set up numbers from fellow RListers. Taking my car in for alignment in two weeks. Car is only used for street driving but streets are more like track around here. It's stock.
Would like to get rid of nervous front end and not to worried about tire wear. Thanks!

Would be interesting to what others are running for alignments track/street. Especially people that take their cars to specialty tuner/Race shops. We all understand that some of the adjustments are tire related or street/track, and even how fast/skill level of track driving one is at. Still would be nice to compare.
I have searched a lot of threads. Here are some numbers.
2mm total toe out front/ 4mm total toe in at rear. Some folks run 0 toe front
Roland Kussmaul track #s- +5' total toe front/ 32' +/-2' total toe rear
Some folks run slightly less than 1mm toe out in front/ slightly less than 2.5mm total toe in at rear
As for Camber(dependent as stated above) 3.5-2 neg camber front/2.75-2 neg camber rear.
I used to run 3.2 neg camber front and 2.5 neg camber rear. Lately went to 2.9 front 2.4 rear to be conservative on tire wear. I will go back to 3.2 in front stay at 2.4 rear. Toe is lightly out at front and .09deg in at each side rear. I use the Nitto NT-01 tires.
What are you running?

These are my current settings running ohlins R&T which have higher spring rates than stock.
Front ARB is 3 of 5
Rear ARB is 2 of 4
Front ride height = 113mm
Rear ride height = 131mm
Cross weights 749kg/750kg
Not an aggressive setting by far but uniform rear tyre wear. Perfect for fast road and track work (for me). Pointy on turn in, neutral feel, I'm not rolling onto edges so can't see need for increased camber.
