wheel alignment

[britlude]

getting the tracking/alignment done on the car this week....

anyone had the alignment at the rear set less agressively, so the tyres don't scrub the inside edges quite so quickly.. ie less camber, and set more neutral??? not that fussed on the handling side, as I don't drive like a loon, and it can always be reset later if required!

anyone?

Yes mine is, I have been itching for a long time to get it set back to OEM, high speed stability suffers greatly.

[britlude]

high speed 70, or higher speed?

[simonprelude]

Higher ;) :D


high speed 70, or higher speed?

Isn't it the rear toe setting rather than camber that causes the high tyre wear?

[britlude]

combination of the two!

I've got less toe front and rear. 1mm total at both ends. I also have more camber though.

Do I drive like a loon? Mmmm.......

Got mine set back to the OEM settings as I now use the Goodyear GSD3 tyres and no longer have the tyre wear problems I had with the Bridgestones.....

[duncan]

The factory settings have + and - limits, I had my front and rear alignements set at the least aggresive, i.e nearest to straight ahead tollerance. Approaching 3mm depth on tyres after 17.5k miles

Have the OEM settings from a 94' or newer done and the tyre wear will be alot less. NSXPrime has bags of info about it. You can adjust the toe yourself with a measuring tape. It's not difficult at all. I had a racer friend of mine show me and if I can do it anyone can.
