I finally got aligned today, and was not one of the lucky ones that didn't need a rear camber kit. Guess I know what's in my near future.

Camber Front Left: -1.5
Camber Front right: -1.8
Toe L/R: 0.0

Camber Rear Left: -2.9
Camber Rear Right: -2.4
Toe in L/R: .06
Total toe in: .12

I did a search on alignment specs, and didn't really find what I was looking for in regards to ideal toe settings. For a street car, I should be going for 0 toe up front and slight toe in on the rear correct? Like what I have now? Seeing as I'll be getting another alignment when I have my rear camber kit installed, I'll have another opportunity to fine tune the settings.

Toe looks good to me. I have been trying to work out toe settings for the past couple weeks. There's not much on here with specific numbers... I've been to the alignment shop 5 times in the past 3 weeks trying to dial her back in. I have had Swifts for 8 months, and recently put camber kits on along with 265/35 - 305/30 tires. She drove like sh!t after, and it was my toe settings. As it turns out I don't really need front A-arms. I have front camber at -2.0 which you can almost get with OEM. You probably want adjustable camber arms out back to get a little less - camber. Shoot for -1.75 to -2.0, it's most common.
...my 2 cents.
