C6 proposed AutoX alignment

C6 proposed AutoX alignment
So...Bought a 2009 C6 base with factory forged wheels(gumbys).
35K miles. Have already installed Z51 sway bars, Michelin super sport
ZP tires, & PFC Z pads. Have Belstien HD shocks that the dealer will install, reset ride height and align. I can go with the PFADT Performance street/track or :
Ft Camber -1.5 Deg Rear Camber -1.0 Deg
FT Toe out 1/16 total REAR Toe in 1/16 total
caster 8.0
With this be an issue driving to the track(85 miles) or daily driving?

Toe out in the front with the camber setting you have will increase tire wear on the inside edge of the tire. Think of it this way you are putting more of the car's weight to the inside of the tire with the negative camber and then with the toe out you are pushing that side of the tire forward at the same time. Run 0 toe to stop that. Toe in works but then you will have less response on turn in.
