How are these specs? New steeda stuff, new alignment.

anything I should specify next time I get an alignment?

so glad to get off my coilovers. Huge ride quality improvement.

More camber, that's about it especially in the front. I run that teeny bit of negative toe in the front as well since I like how it makes the steering feel a bit dartier.

That front toe was interesting to me. I thought it was supposed to be zero.

I’m glad my negative camber in the rear was mitigated for the most part. I was at almost -3° lowered 2 inches

It's in spec but most people like a bit of positive toe for stability.

Personally dont have any issues with the stability.. maybe if you run toe out on all 4 wheels.

I would look at the Ford specs for all the different variants and tweak to taste

I don't like toe out on the street, and I would like more neg camber in front.

Looks pretty good should drive fine.

How much - camber in the front is appropriate?

 

[GrabberBargeCaptain]

-2F -1.5r is a good starting point

Pushing it a bit more wouldn’t hurt tire life much either

They fixed the front toe and the rear toe should be more predictable. Should drive fine. I like zero front toe, or very slight toe in if tire wear is a concern.

I also prefer more front camber (for next time, with camber plates). Helps with the understeer to have more up front.

I do have camber plates. Looks like they didn’t adjust much up front besides toe.

I’m going to be honest. I’m kind of concerned with the toe in, on the front. Still seems to dart.

I’m kind of curious about the toe out. -.03 seems like almost nothing. Not enough o make a difference. Or is it?

You’d be surprised. I always prefer small changes and build upon that rather than larger changes.

However if you always drive in a straight line I could see where small changes may be hard to realize

Dartiness has a to do with the type, size, and condition of your tires and the roads in your area, and your own sensitivy to sports car steering behavior. People who come from sedans or SUVs often dont understand sports car steering should be responsive. Im not saying thats you.

Anyway the toe looks great (for all practical purposes -0.01 IS exactly zero,.. witth most good precise measurement techniques, you cant descern changes less than about 0.03, and most machines wont show changes less than 0.05) …

but if you want a heavier steering feel, then dial 0.05 toe in on the front, but that consider your car was insanely toe in before, crazy big numbers, and so surely this does feel extremely different. Maybe give it an adjustment period. If those numbers are right your front toe is completely normal and proper now.

Again dartiness is a lot to do with tires. What kind and how worn are yours?

I have continental extreme contact sports in the front 275/35r19 and they’re idk, half tread to the wear bars? I bought them last May.

I have 305/35r19 nittos in the rear that were replaced two months ago. No tread issues there.

if it looks right to y’all, I’m not gonna worry about it. I overthink a lot of shit so this may be just the case.
