My inner edges were cupped to SHIT after 15k miles (PS4S). Got an alignment and went toe 0 and camber only -1.5, hopefully this set does better.
How much of a difference did you feel after the new alignment?

I put some 4S on the front, going to get the street alignment put on it. The standard GT500 street settings are slightly different than the CFTP alignment settings.

Since I now have the 4S tires, do I want the STD GT500 street settings or the CFTP settings?

I would use the CFTP settings. There is really very little difference in street alignments.

Had the car aligned yesterday. While it was on the rack, I had the tech just bring the Camber back from -3.0 to -1.2 and watched the toe while he did it. The Toe changed from -.10 to positive .2 something. I should have taken a picture since my memory is so bad, but I didn't bother because it was obvious that one couldn't just change the camber at the track without having a decent way to measure/fix the toe.

I've used plates like this at the track for setting quick, and pretty accurate. Might not get you
steering wheel straight up the first couple times, but who cares on that just driving home from track.
