That's a little counterintuitive. What tires did you have on the car previously?I switched my tires to 275/35 all around which made my front to be higher than the rear but this made the car to oversteer.

I have a PP car so 255/40 Front and 275/40 BackThat's a little counterintuitive. What tires did you have on the car previously?
Ok, now it makes sense. That extra inch of rubber on each front tire is a big deal.I have a PP car so 255/40 Front and 275/40 Back
Yeah. The staggered rear is gonna make the car push. Without that, the balance shifts more towards the neutral/oversteer side of scale. Also, even things like tire pressure can change the balance, so depending on his tire psi that can also contribute.Ok, now it makes sense. That extra inch of rubber on each front tire is a big deal.
It does become oversteer so I will buy bigger front sway to push it back a bit. Because I also switched to Semi-Slicks and they are stickier so the car is leaning a lot with them. Next track event is 05.06 which will be my first with this tires.Yeah. The staggered rear is gonna make the car push.

Maybe -1.5 on the rear to match that front? BMR etc recommend more like 0.12-0.15 rear toe per side. Admittedly I don't know how much difference that makes.along with this alignment
F Camber: -2.0
Toe: 0.05 per side, total 0.10
R Camber: -1.7
Toe: 0.10 per side, total 0.20
I concur. Try to achieve a 0.5 deg less rear camber. It's a good balance, and IMO should work really well with his stiff front sway bar and the SP083 springs.Maybe -1.5 on the rear to match that front?

No.Also, does the front toe make any difference between 0 to 0.05 ? What are you guys running for street use.
It will make a slight difference, yes. 0.05 will make it less twitchy but a little slower response. Either is a fine setting for street use. I run 0.00. It's a preference thing to be honest.Thanks @shogun32 @Bluemustang, i'll stick to -1.5 camber at the rear then. And for the rear toe, I have the FP toe/knuckle bearing so don't want to go beyond 0.10.

What dimensions are you talking about?It will make a slight difference, yes. 0.05 will make it less twitchy but a little slower response. Either is a fine setting for street use. I run 0.00. It's a preference thing to be honest.
Degrees.What dimensions are you talking about?
interesting. i was wondering why it changed it that much. initially i thought my tech left the plastic covers on or something or even worse and climbed under to inspect it when i got home it was so bad. i had extended ball joints on my 2012 mustang and don't remember it being nearly that bad after install. never felt a car with steering that weird that didn't have something brokenYes, the Steeda arms narrow the track ~0.2" per side, which would definitely get you that much toe.
