Wheels: Stock Rays 19X10
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE-11

I know a lot of people have recommended -1.8 camber in the rear due to the amount of compression our cars have. But it does not work for me. Maybe it's the weight I've removed but I have -2.3 rear. Also run 305 rear with true type Coilover setup.

This is good stuff... There seems to be a lot of ways to do it... I'm on swift springs with stock wheels. I put a camber kit in the rear and am getting an alignment on Friday. Was hoping to get back to stock specs initially, but there seems to be a lot of options, I drive my car on the street more than the track, but will auto cross and have an occasional trackday.

When I set up my Z for the One Lap of America, I will be going with:

Front
Toe: 0
Camber -2.5

Rear:
Toe 1/16-1/8 total toe in
Camber -1.8

All settings will be done with a driver IN the driver's seat. Which I consider a necessity. Also, this is with stock springs and shocks, aftermarket front upper arms.

^^^ what they said. Pretty much what I run and the car feels great. Problem for me is I run so many different tire setups and switch between autox and HPDE. Seems to be a nice medium though.
