Gotcha, the toe numbers I quoted above are positive. Not sure the benefit of running double rear toe in comparison with the front as posted and reflected in Nissans factory data. Any ideas?

Meaty tire setup there. I noticed a big seat of pants power gain stepping down from 325/30/19 to 305/35/19 most likely due to lower overall gearing, weight and less friction on the road with the 305's. Loved the 325 look but can't justify the "power loss." At -1* rear camber I have maybe 1/2 of outer tread not on the road which is fine as it contacts in corners and I don't get on the sidewalls.

Still love getting behind the big body Chargers, Challengers and Mustangs and seeing their OE tires/wheels that look like spares compared with our Z's.
