My alignment after Swifts

Awesome. So on the rear, although no more than -1.5, is there a specific number I should tell the tech to shoot for? And rear toe, try to zero it

Thanks!

Kinetix advertises their traction arms to adjust toe, SPL does not. I'd shoot for zero toe also but I wouldn't buy the aftermarket eccentric bolts to get it. I made a lockout kit (so no eccentric bolts, so no way to slip alignment) and will be doing all camber and toe in the arms. Just an FYI, buy camber arms and bolts or camber arms and traction arms. I vote arms.

Looks like the Kinetix camber/traction arms is an additional $120 more than the SPC camber arm and toe bolts. Worth it?

Maybe not if you're a street driver. AMS is way cheaper though.
