Use this one since there is no wiggle room in it (numbers to be dead on).

However, expect less performance with those specs. Rear camber is -.6 less than OEM. Most people don't have issues with rear tire wear first. I just use the center of GM specs on my GS and love it. I have more miles on my Super Sports than the OEM tires left and I'm almost at 1/2 tread. Toe out or too much toe in will eat up GS tires.

The problem I'm having is the inside of both front and rear tires are worn with 8000 miles, had it aligned at 3000. Just put new tires all around and want the alignment to be right,thanks guys.

I just had the street specs done on my GS last week. I haven't seen much of a difference in driving or handling with the new street specs. The steering might feel slightly lighter.

Mine wasn't way off to start with. The front camber went from -1.0 (L) and -1.1(R) to -0.8, caster was already 8.0. The rear camber went from -0.3 to -0.5 (L) and -1.0 to -0.5 (R) both with 0.00 toe.

I could tell where the uneven tire wear was. It matched up with the before numbers on the alignment printout I asked for. I'll be replacing all 4 tires when the rears finally go, which won't be more than another 1-2k miles probably.
