Default Camber setting. Front different than rear in EF?

I searched for the best starting point for my camber setting on EF.

Running GC/Tokico Illumna with 400f/450r
Car is track only

Will be running Dot "slicks", Falcon Azeena currently

-2.5 is the average starting point i've found most people using in front. I've never seen anything about rear. Should it be the same?

Depends on the tire. Toyos like -3 to -5.

Rear is a compromise, depends on how you need to balance the car. Maximize the front traction and adjust rear to compensate.

A little off the subject, but as far a toe, 0 all around seems to be the general answer. Again, car is only track driven.

Any other opinions?

since its a track car, youll be running 225s all the way around. so put as much camber in the rear as you need to clear the 225s.
0* toe

205's barely clear now. 225's are on order though.. I guess if the camber gets too carried away, I'll roll the fenders a little.

Good thing I didn't get the 35 offset wheels.... then again I have 5mm spacers with extended wheel studs I was going to put on. Maybe not....

camber setup should depend upon track ultimately

no, your gonna have to get in there and roll that lip totaly flush with the inside of the rear quarter to even begin to think about fitting 225s. 38-40 offset works best btw.
