Wheel Allignment

Post by mxysxy »

I will get some new tyres tomorrow (Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 215/45R17), and they will do the balancing and allignment.

I am not sure if they are friendly with FTO's in terms of allignment.
So, what numbers do I have to them?

Here is what I found from Whiteline web site.
I guess touring is what I want, due to the reason I dont do track work.

Is this correct?

yeah that'll work fine... you can go to -1.5 if you like if you do "spirited" driving around corners... if you have a lot of body roll (e.g. standard shocks, no sway bars, no heavy duuty antirollbars) -1.5 will be be fine as the body roll compensates for it...

if you havfe a stiff arse car like mine then -1.5 on normal streets will wear the inner side of the tyres a bit more.
