Have just fitted camber bolts after reading the good gains to be had. along with new wishbones/tie rod ends etc

Need to get a wheel alignment done

Car is on eibach springs so 35mm lower

What is a good setup for a toy/weekend car (ie not daily driver so I can deal with a little more tyre wear)

I am thinking about 1.25 neg camber?
but toe in etc - what's a good setup?

if it makes any difference I have the uprated rear ARB (22mm whiteline)and stiffer Osrav shocks

Cheers

Sounds like you are getting a very nice handling Coupe!
I use the same -1.3deg camber and have -1mm toe-in. Perfect for everyday use and the occasional trackday. Still - for ONLY trackdays I'd go for maybe 1mm toe-out!

Mine is on Eiabch's (30mm lower), Bilsteins, Whiteline rear ARB, strut brace and Nigel's lower brace (I love the overall feel!) with 1 degree of negative camber and standard alignment settings - this is fine for daily driving.

Only done a couple of hundred miles with the camber bolts but I've not seen any sign of increased tyre wear, so 1.25 would probably be fine (think Nigel's is at 1.2)


It is hard to understand how a cemetery can raise burial rates and blame it on the cost of living

I have mine set to -1.20 on the N/S and -1.05 on the O/S to compensate for the slight gradient on most roads which causes the pull to the left.
