Default recommendations on alignment specs

I'm getting my 05 aligned, and was trying to get some opinions on going with the stock specs or another company's specs ? Thanks.

You can worry yourself silly obsessing with a degree here and/or there. Or you can use the stock GM specs and enjoy your Vette. Guess which one will get you around the track faster

Go to your browser or Google, PFADT C6 alignment, will take you to their web page, a very high number of us use the street specs because we are not on a track, but you can pick the one that fits your cars needs. Print it off and take to a reputable shop...

Did the Phadt street specs years ago. And, rotate front tires side to side (break them down and change rims) every 10K miles. My GoodYear re flats lasted 40K miles.
