Being new to C7 forum I need to know if their Performance/Street specs for a C6 can be used on the C7. Don't track the car, it is used for extended road trips and driving very little go fast stuff. Got over 30K miles on my C6 with lots of tread left when I traded it. Need to have it done before I add hew Michelin's and head out to Montana.

Many here use the DSC alignment specs for the street.

Clspht's chart of specs is okay, but DSC has updated the front caster to +7.5°.

And....the C7 has adjustable REAR CASTER, and it's VERY IMPORTANT!!!

Make sure your alignment shop gives you a before and after of the rear caster. It's not printed out on the computerized form they'll probably have after doing the alignment, so tell them you want them to write the rear caster before they do any adjusting, and also write down the final rear caster setting.

Here's a link to the current DSC spec sheet, as well as a .jpg of it:
