Having mine checked / adjusted (if necessary) next week.

Anyone know the camber / castor / toe settings?

Just going to cut and paste my recent message for another owner;

The OEM setup is based on OEM chassis setup including the specific OEM tyre.
Therefore, once you start making modifications on the suspension area, tyre, wheel, etc, you need to find your own setup.
I normally use the followings as the starting points.
If you can’t achieve the same setup between R & L when aiming for these numbers, you must make compromise and try achieving the best but must make sure to keep R & L the same.

Front Toe PER SIDE: -0* 06’ +/- 03’ (negative, toe out)
Some people prefer less.
Total Front Toe: -0* 12’ +/- 06’

Front Camber: -0* 30’ +/- 10’

Front Caster: + 8* 15’ +/- 15’
Quite often, caster adjuster is seized.
As long as you can achieve more than + 5*, you are OK.
Best if you can make both R & L the same but quite often, both adjusters are seized so you just need to live with whatever the current setup is.
Even with fair amount of difference between R & L, most of the drivers won’t be able to feel the difference.

Rear Camber: -2* 00’ +/- 10’

Rear Toe PER SIDE: +0* 11’ +/- 03’ (positive, toe in)
Total Rear Toe: +0* 22’ +/- 06’
