alignment
i'm going in for a 4 wheel alignment and i was wondering what i should get my rear camber set to? it is a 00 si used mainly for "spirited" street driving. i want a good set-up for high speed cornering. just so u kno, i already have the rear camber kit installed. thanx for the help!
You shouldn't be driving "spirited" on the streets.
You will want zero toe all the way around,
and not more than 2 degrees of camber is necessary
but please don't drive like an ***-clown on the street

no, u dont have to worry about that. i drive respectfully on the streets. i just need to get the right settings for some occasional auto-x. thanx for the help

Autocross is not "high speed cornering."

If you are occasionally auto-x'ing then the
alignment I suggest earlier will be fine for you..
if you are auto-xing a lot you may want to add some toe out to the front
However: Toe is what kills your street tires,
1/8" of toe out will make your car a little "darty" but will be good for auto-x
so if you are not that serious about auto-x and you dont' want to buy tires every year.... set your toe to zero, and your camber can be anywhere from 0 to -2 degrees and you should be fine.

ok thanx. thats exactly what kind of reply i was looking for. ya im not serious about it, i just do some occasional auto-x. the tire wear from street use is more imprtant to me and so is great handling. thanx for the input.
