Why in the world are you running that much rear camber? You saying SPC is maxed out and you can't go lower?



I just got mine done. Everything factory in the front but swift spec-r springs and the rear is SPL traction links, camber arms and mid links with my lockout toe and camber bolt kit and 65mm by 6" 10k linear swift springs lowered to about 26.18" each side. If I do a corner balance I'll probably have to raise or lower a side then get another alignment.

I don't know how yours feels with so much rear camber and so little front but mine feels great on the street. I still need front arms to even caster out and get more camber. I shot for a little toe-out in the front and a little toe-in in the rear. I love it.

I was confused on the meaning of toe vs thrust angle.

Turn in grip is excellent -- I was under the impression that more rear camber was desirable relative to front since you can turn the front wheels in, but not the rear.

Notwithstanding my limited comprehension of these matters, the car handles very well and very neutrally.

I was under the impression that caster was rarely tweaked on cars relative to motorbikes -- maybe I'm wrong here?
