Default CCW's and Alignment....Need Help

Got my new rear rotors in place this afternoon and bolted up the rear CCW's. Just need to let the suspension settle and then it's time for an alignment.


For those that have or have used the CCW 18x10 front 275/35 18x11.5 rear 335/30 combo, what spec's did you use for your alignment?

I was thinking about utilizing the '02 Z06 spec's........

Car is mainly used for street performance with a drag street outing 2-3 times a month.

Advice needed!

Thanks!
:cheers:

Sven, I ran that setup for several years and I also run the CCW Road Course package in the sig pic too. I set my car on the Factory settings and never had any problems with wear or rubbing... if you get too much Negative Camber you may rub the inside of the Wheel wells... IMO....

This is what I have previously run when I had the Z06 wheels. This is basically the "moderate" Z06 specs.

Front Individual Camber -1.00
Front Individual Caster 6.90
Front Individual Toe 0.02
Steering Wheel Angle 0.00

Front Cross Camber 0.00
Front Cross Caster 0.00
Front Total Toe 0.04

Rear Individual Camber -0.70
Rear Individual Toe -0.01

Rear Total Toe -0.02
Rear Thrust Angle 0.00
Rear Cross Camber 0.00

I e-mailed John @CCW and basically all he said was that if my 'vette is lowered and using the Z06 specs then I would probably have to use a spacer to keep the wheels from rubbing on the inner liner.

Does anyone have a chart of the C5 alignment specs???
