FLUJOKE · 09-28-2015, 12:34 PM

Not sure if this is good specs or not? I'm daily street driven a track MAYBE once a year. 370 sport stock tire size.

You need less camber if you don't want to eat tires in the rear. Personally I'd run closer to -1.5 to -1.7. Not sure about the toe as it's in degrees but fwiw I have my rear toe set to 1/16" toe in total.

That's a lot of toe in too, 1/4"+.
.03123 = 1/32" ea side, or .0625 = 1/16" total toe.
Toe in or out is actually more of a tire eater than the camber. I ran -2.5 rear camber until I got toe bolts without much uneven wear at all. That was with the same rear toe setting rear, 1/16", in and dead Zero in front.

I'm so lost. So what should I be at guys? I see degrees of total .30 total toe. What should it be at then?

You're just under 3/8" toed in = .30 That's a lot.
Think of .5 = 1/2", .25 = 1/4", .125 = 1/8", etc.

Did the lock out bolts work for you?

FLUJOKE · 09-28-2015, 07:07 PM

Yes I got the lockout bolts on. So what fraction/ degree should I be at kind people.

Just go with 0 toe. Honestly the difference between 0 toe and whatever 1/16" total toe in is in degrees is probably insignificant for most people handling wise (I sure I probably couldn't tell the difference).

if you go 0 toe; you may lose control on high speed acelleration! Toe number's look fine.
also if you don't burn your tires/camber will be ok-better cornering.
i got -1.7 camber & still smoke the inner part of my tires more.
as far as toe.....a guy set mine at 0 & ~Z~ was very unstable under hard acceleration above 80...lots of dancing around in back.
Road force will pull tires outwards somewhat.

FLUJOKE · 09-28-2015, 07:47 PM

So main objective I'm getting from all this is to take rear camber to -1.5 to -1.7..... What is the degree in toe to get, b/c i don't want 0 toe if I'm going to lose control. thank you all for the help

Also; as you adjust camber more + (outwards) toe will increase (inward) and will need to be adjusted back to spec.
Alway's be sure and do rear alignment first before going to the front!
have a good evening.
