Suspension upgrades in this weekend -- Best street camber settings?
 
I know this has probably been asked before, but I just installed some H&R springs, spacers, and rear camber arms. What is a good setting or range of settings on my camber for all four wheels? After an initial alignment at Firestone today, I have the following camber:

FR: -1.9 degrees
FL: -1.7 degrees
RR: -2.3 degrees
RL: -2.1 degrees

No major variation on toe in on either front or rear.

Any thoughts or input is appreciated.

I've read the following is a good starting place: -2.0 to -2.5 front (will greatly reduce understeer), and -2.0 rear.

I got my car corner balanced last week, but need front and rear camber arms to allow for proper camber adjustments, so I'm waiting on SPC front and rear kits to arrive and then I'll get a second alignment on Friday. I'm planning on -2.3 front (toe 0) and -2.2 rear (toe IN 0.15). I want better turn-in but don't want the car to be squirrelly in a straight line (e.g. highway driving). I'm looking for an aggressive street set-up with the intention of going to the track once a month.

Running 30psi front, 35psi rear can also reduce understeer, a better option than large camber on the front for road driving. -2.5 on the front is way too much for the front for road driving, in my opinion. Track settings would be more aggressive like you are showing.
