So I have an appointment at Auto Innovations in Milpitas after countless referals to go there for alignment and also to do the rear springs. Sad I could not finish what I started, but after doing that on Saturday my knee killed me and I did not want to try doing it again. So at 3 I will be there waiting for my car to get done, ahhhhhhhhh I feel a little better now.

I am going stay within stock range I hope if not try to max out the camber from the stock camber bolts. Not sure about Toe as I would like to have these tires last a while, but we'll see about that

Taken from T3h_Clap's website but I made it look like a quote from the forums.

Front

1.) Adjust Camber eccentric bolt (Upper bolt that attaches strut to the spindle) so camber is maximized but equal left to right.

2.) Adjust Toe to be Zero left and right.

Rear

1.) Adjust Toe eccentric to be Zero left and right.
So in one way or another I answered my own questin about what setting to put my car at. Man I love that guy

Yeah? Should I listen to you or the wheel guru

So is that 0.02 on both sides of the rear? Thanks Jurg,

I drove around with only the front done, it feels better then stock. I swear I felt less bobblehead action while on the freeway and on city streets, but we'll see once everything is said and done
