I just put SPL front camber and rear camber/toe arms on my z and need an alignment. I currently have KW v3 at max height with settings all in the middle. Stillen sways, stiff rear middle front. Rears are pilot super sport 325/30/19 front are RS3 245/40/19. quaife torsen LSD.

I'm supercharged at 479hp to the rear wheels and my biggest annoyance is how fast I lose traction when I hit the throttle so I'm hoping to focus my alignment specs on that. I do spirited daily driving and canyon runs, no track time yet.

After research I feel like i should go:
FRONT -1.5 camber 0 toe 5.17 caster
REAR -1.8 camber, 1/32" R+ 1/32" L toe in (so like .01 degree toe in total)

Gomer's suggestions makes me think:
FRONT -2 camber 0 toe 5.17 caster
REAR -1.2 camber, 1/32" R+ 1/32" L toe in (so like .01 degree toe in total)

i THINK this is the best I can do for launch and corner traction without going through tires like crazy. Anyone have suggestions otherwise?
