Default Difference in alignment?

Around the forum, I see many posts by members stating the UK spec and US spec for alignment when you lower your car. What exactly is the difference? Does UK S2ks come with more aggressive alignment than our US s2ks from factory?

Off topif: What exactly does FTW mean?? lol

Thanks all.

I have the UK specs on mine with a slight adjustment. The car feels more planted.

UK alignment is more aggressive. -1 camber up front and -2 in rear. IIRC also slightly more toe in as well.

So s2ks in UK come with those alignment specs from the factory? What is the reasoning behind that? We should get the same specs!
