FrontCamber: -4.5 degreesCaster: 6 degreesToe: 1/8" toe out (would set to zero if car sees much street driving)

RearCamber: -2.5 degreesToe: 1/4" toe-in

That's what I ran on my STS car anyway, with 225/45-17 all the way around. I would try running the 235/40-17 tire instead of your current setup - it'll help gearing and CG, and the 235's from Falken or Yokohama are as wide as most 245's.

Good luck!

if youre running in stock class like me you can run what I run:

camber-3.5 degrees fronttoe 1/8 " toe out frontI have never seen gain from castor changeRear already has -2degees toe @0-1/16" out .I like to loosen the rear up a little since my S-14 tends to plow abit , so I toe it out a bit for autox.Thats already plenty if your running on the street too.

All you gotta do is two cam bolts from napa to get the front .
