96 EK Hatch, camber and toe settings for street use.
I'm curious as to what toe and camber setting would be ideal for street use. I would like to have a compromise between tire wear and handling. I need to get an alignment soon since I never got one after installing my suspension setup, and I want to tell the shop exactly what I want for settings. My suspension setup is as followed:
<u>1996 Civic Hatchback</u>
OmnipowerUSA Full Coilover Setup (10k/6k)
OmnipowerUSA Front and Rear Camber Kits
15" Rota Slipstreams w/Falken Azenis Sports 205/50/15
I think that's all that really matters. I have a ST Sway Kit, strut bars/triangle bars, and Megan LCA's, but those don't have any affect on it really.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: Also, ideal tire pressure would be appreciated as well. Thanks again.

camber:
F: -1.5
R: -1.0
toe: 0 all around
caster: whatever it's at.
as long as you zero out the toe the tires will last a long time. camber doesn't kill tires, toe does.
