Please look at my alignment settings

yah. my G's setup more aggressive than yours and she's also a garage queen. tires usually last 8-10K depending on how spiritedly i drive.

considering tires's life is like 5-6yrs and i only put like 3k miles on the car per season, aggressive alignment and fun to drive > tire life.

you wanted toe out on the front then for faster turn-in? thats my setup too on my G. slight toe-out on the front.

my Z is stock.

From everything I read yes. I no idea what -0.05* is in length or 0.04* and 0.06*, but I went for it.

thats good stuff. it's very subtle, but a noticable difference.

I'm the OP. This has become a very informative thread. Since I only do mild tracking, I never knew there was so much to alignments, but it makes complete sense once you think about it.

For now I am just monitoring my tires for wear.
