I use the Van Steel Advanced street but with 1/32 toe in on mine. Works great.

Gotta have a bit of toe IN on the front end to make the wheels "track" straight. If you have neutral toe, the wide tires will wander around on roads that are not truly flat.

I set for +5 degrees castor, but it causes excessive bumpsteer. Does anyone sell one of those tapered studs so you can replace the outer tie rod with a heim and 2 nuts and adjust the bump steer out?
