Getting alignment done, stock or performance setting?

[Blue Batmobile]

Just dropped my car off to get my Eibachs installed. Question for you guys that have had an alignment done. Did you specify stock settings or performance settings, where the rear has a slight toe in?

bump - intersted as well. Bat - would you kindly post specs on your alignment. I am doing the install today and tomorrow myself. Thanks!

I will as soon as I get the car back tomorrow . Good Luck with your install .

Depends on how you like your car to handle. You'll get better "turning" traction with the performance setting (great for autocross) but you will find the car to be very twitchy on average roads. If you do any significant highway driving I'd advise you to seriously consider the trade-off. If there's any roadwear, you'll be jumping all over the lane which can be a PIA handfull on long drives.

I will be getting an alignment on Monday. I will be using the following settings:

Front-
Camber: -2
Toe: 0

Rear-
Camber: -1.5
Toe: -1/8 to -1/4 in

I drive my car about twice a week on the street only.

Mark - thanks for the input. Is this near factory setting? Is this with Eibach springs/ Thanks

I have had all sorts of allignments on my car over the years, and to be honest for street the best is factory.

A track alignment causes too much twitch, and a big lack of traction with the negative camber . Right now my specs are almost identical to Silver Snakes, but I will be re doing it to stock.

I went ahead and went with factory settings.
