Aligment for my car. Toe out? How much.
So i have my new shocks nad springs i will be corner balancing my car this weekend. Hopfuly gettting the right setup.
What should the toe out in the front be? 1/6th of or a 1/8th out. This is still a street driven car and i do not want some crazy wear on my wheels, but i do want t nimble car.
The car runs in SM, i have 30mm offset (sucks), on 205/55/14 tires. The car has about 2 degrees of camber. No front bar, only a rear. 400F/450 rear.

The best i got form the search that i toe out is preffered for tun in (Miliken told me that last year) but by how much i don't know.
will a 1/16th make a difference over 1/8th by how much.....is there really a huge difference here or am i just waisting people time.

I always ran 1/8" total toe out, and never had any adverse wear. I have tried 1/8" per side on my old car and didnt notice much improvement over the 1/16" per side in performance. But it had struts up front, YMMV.
The 30mm offset is going to make a difference in how much toe you run. That is going to be a HUGE scrub radius, so you may have to run a little extra toe to compensate for the extra turning force on the wheels. Although, this is a recipe for a REALLY darty car. I would start at a 1/4" total toe out and see if it is drivable with that offset. You may have to go less. I run 4mm total toe out (~0.16"), although, I have proper offset wheels.
