Default Need alignment specs for c5
hey guys,
I am looking for good alignment specs for my C5Z. I will be doing HPDE and also using the car for the street so I need something that will satisfy both.

Thanks

in for this. I think my front end is off alignment... I just went through a set of front tires and my rears still look new. This has never happened before. Rears always wore first.

front
-1.5 camber -2.0 -2.5 agressive
6.5 caster
1/32" out

rear
-1.0 camber -1.5 agressive
1/32" in

pretty safe alignment to not kill the tires on the street.
