Hey guys,

I bought a set of Bilstein coilovers and was wanting to know what settings you guys are running for alignment. I drive around 30 miles round trip every day for work and hit up the mountains every other night and on weekends definitely. I want something that isn't going to kill my tires but be a lot of fun and responsive for when I'm thrashing the mountains.

If you guys have any tips or suggestions just throw them my way if you don't mind. Thanks! I'm going to just cruise around in this section and see what I can round up at the same time.

Did you buy camber adjusting parts for the rear? If not, get some, otherwise you can't adjust rear camber.

I'm running something along the lines of 2.8 degrees front 1.3 degrees rear camber, zero toe all around (IIRC), but I track my car, for street only, you might want to go a little less aggressive on the front camber and add some toe in to both ends.

 

yep thats a good start...

i find zero toe is fine on the street, although with the stock toe control bushings zero static toe, becomes a little toe in. if you're running the DTSS eliminators a little toe in in the rear is prolly good.

rear camber should be in the -1 to -1.5 area

front caster should be as much as you can get, camber is up to you, the more you have the more you are going to wear tires on the freeway.... i'm thinking some thing like -1.5 to -2.5...

i like a higher ride height too, i think it'll end up about 25" from the ground to the top of the wheel arch, with maybe a little taller in the rear. too low and the geometry is funky, plus we have BAD roads (hit a pot hole the other day that was deep enough to swallow enough wheel to hit the subframe on the ground)
