Default Toe angle and ride height relationship for DC2 Integra.

Hi I have a question related to toe and ride height relationship for DC2 Integra.

How everyone knows lower the ride height will generate more negative camber on DC2 chassis. How about toe? What is the relationship between the two? Will lower ride height result toe angle inward or outward? This is one question I always want to find out the answer.

Thanks for any input.

Don't even think about trying to avoid an alignment if that's what you're trying to do.

In changing the ride height of the car, you could end up changing some very basic aspects of the alighment, like how the total toe of the rear aligns with the total toe of the front. The car could end up fighting itself at higher speeds if you don't get a <u>good</u> alignment after changing the ride height.

Yes, of course, I learned this the hard way.
