Hey guys

Just wondering what alignment specs I should be going for once I drop the car on Swift Spec R's

Thanks! :afro:

All depends on if you need something aggressive for the track, or if you need just normal settings for street.
Pick your poison

Priority: Tire Wear

Front:
Camber: -1.5
Toe: 0

Rear:
Camber: -1
Toe: 0

It's an aggressive enough setting where you will still feel like you are driving a sports car, but mild enough where treadwear is amazing. There will be a slight amount of induced understeer at the limits of traction so it's safer for street use compared to slight oversteer.

Did you by any chance make a note of the settings that they set up as "aggressive street?" Just curious.

They don't really have a set "aggressive street" specs.

Darren will ask you how you drive your car, and what you prefer more: tire wear and comfort, or maximum traction. If you want a more aggressive alignment, he will ask you what conditions do you drive aggressively. An autocross car will be different from a canyon car.

But for a DD street car, the general rule of thumb is:

Front:
Toe: 0*
Camber: -1.5* to -2* each side
Rear:
Toe: 0* (or the stock 3mm toe in)
Camber: -1*
