Conservative Alignment Specs
After searching for over an hour and not finding any definitve answer, I wanted to post this to get everyone's thoughts. I am having my 04 S2000 aligned tomorrow and am looking for a conservitve alignment that will be easy on my tires. I do not track my car and would like to extend the life of my tires as much as possible.
I was told that the following alignment specs would work for me:
Camber -0.5 (all around)
Leave Caster stock (6.00)
Toe +0.06 (all around)
By no means am I am expert on alignment. Any thoughts/advice would be appreciated. I am going to a reputable shop with a Huner Hawk laser alignment rack.
Thanks!

toe kills your tires unless you run more than 2.5 degrees negative camber, then you need between .25 and .30 if you want good tire life. If your suspension is stock then I suggest 0 camber up front, 0 total toe 6 degrees caster, rear between .6 to 1.2 degrees negative camber, and .4 or less total toe, or .2 to .1 toe in on each side, any less than that and it's going to be tricky to go over 90 mph. Whatever you do, do not under any circumstances run toe out on the rear unless you're into gymkhana
