Important
The alignment is adjusted to track or use and that the driver can

Don't forget that not all gauges read the same. I own a liquid filled Longacre gauge, but a non-liquid filled Longacre gauge read 38 vs my 36. On my gauge, the RA1 was real sketchy at 40psi hot. It felt MUCH better at 38 hot, so I've since dropped to 36 hot so as to not ride the fringe. This is based solely on SOTP feel, though I do set camber and spring rates according to tire temps with a probe. Because of this, you need to take tire pressures with a grain of salt. Since I see no irregularities WRT the center temps on my tires both front and rear, I can only ASSume that I'd damn close to what they like. The one thing that makes my brain hurt though is offsetting pressures front vs rear.
