Alignment Question
My dealer is having a special on 4 wheel alignments this month ($99) so I thought I'd take advantage of the deal mostly as a preventative maintenance measure. The car is not showing any abnormal tire wear or unusual handling characteristics. I have not tracked the car so I have not approached the car's limits to know if there are any issues at the edge of the handling envelope, although I have been known to do some apex carving on some back country roads.
Should I go with the factory alignment specs or is there a more performance oriented setup that would provide a balance between tire wear and improved handling?
2009 Carrera S 6spd. with factory stock suspension.

you can do -1 deg front camber, -1.2 deg rear camber, 0.10 toe in rear, for toe in front do not do 0 - for street it will feel a bit jerky, set it a bit above 0 - like 0.05 deg.
but dealer may not want to do setting that differ much from factory tells to set.
