washburn33 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I am running 245 35 18 tires on 18 x 8.5 rims. Can anyone suggest alignment specs that would give the optimal contact patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3Franz Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 What tire pressure are you running? I'll let Keefe chime in, but I'd say try to get as much negative camber as you can. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KartRacerBoy Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Are you using it for straight ahead as fast as you can or me turn left me turn right? Drag racing, you want zero camber to max acceleration. Autocrossing or track days, you want negative camber so you get camber thrust which helps you turn. How much? Wiser heads are needed. I'm only good for theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
