Alignment

I drive a 1991 Z07, and I need to get it aligned. I run ZR-1 replicas with 315's in the back, and I wanted to run a little bit of camber the whole way around to bring the tops of the 315's in a bit. How much camber can I run on a stock suspension without any significant wear/handling issues? Are there any aftermarket alignment specs you guys have done and been happy with? Car is street driven so i dont wan't to go crazy, just looking for something "better" while I'm getting it aligned anyways.

There might be a service directive on alternate settings. I personally don't experiment with suspension settings.

Running excessive negative camber will not give you handling problems. It'll just wear the insides of your tires quickly. You'll be able to corner quicker.

Definitely, however I'm trying to find a happy medium since I put a lot of miles on the car.

Thanks PLRX, I think I'll run the advanced street setup and see how it is. I have really bad toe out on my left front for some reason so anything's better than it is now.
