Default Alignment Specs

In the near future I'll be getting new wheels and tires for my '98 coupe. I'll be going with Z06 size wheels and tires. Are the Z06 alignment specs different than the coupe and if so which should be used? Car is a daily driver.

Z06 specs are more aggressive with more negative camber. If you plan on driving it harder go with the Z06 specs or a more aggressive street alignment. If you are just street driving and not hammering on the car leave it as it is and you will get better tire life...
