    -2.5 Camber, Toe to suit your personal preference.

    I run a bit of toe out on mine as i prefer the turn in to be a bit sharper but in turn it does follow ruts/cambers and road imperfections more

    -3° degree front camber. Ive experienced a lot with toe settings and I say don't bother with any toe it makes no positive effect just makes it twitchy.
     
  5. -2 degree camber and 10mins toe out I had on my clio. That's what I'm going for on the meg when I get my AST's
     
  6. Thanks Johnson, I have 2.5degs camber so just keep tie straight you suggest?

    Yes mate neutral toe
     
  8. For what its worth, on my mk2 I have tried different toe settings......

    No toe made the steering much heavier and had to work a lot harder at the turn in -

    Watch from about 4 mins in as I'm pushing it a bit more and you'll see ...

    I have -0.05 on each side now, so -0.1 toe in total and I much prefer it this way - its like the LSD wasn't working properly with no toe. Ride heights and camber all stayed exactly the same.

    This isn't a great comparison as its the reverse layout at knockhill - but you'll get the idea.

    Best laps in both clips are within 0.1 of eachother though I think the reverse direction has quicker lap times

    As you'll know, fixed camera's dull it down quite a lot - the effect is a lot more when you're actually behind the wheel

    If anything I may run a little more in the future - I'm sure the oem set up had more than -0.1 in total.
