DF210 settings

Hi,

I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to suspension and springs so i thought i'd post the topic here.

I currently have a set of Tanabe DF210 springs for my UK-Spec Honda Jazz, and what i need to know are the settings for it when i come to do the wheel allignment at my local Honda Garage.


I wasn't really paying much attention (probably because he was babbling on about stuff, i kinda lost track), but he told me, before he can do the wheel allignment of all 4 wheels, i need to give him the suspension/allignment settings, as he only knows the stock suspension settings for the car.


Can anyone shed some light on this, and also tell me what these settings are?

you should just tell him to try to get your car as close to the factory alignment specs as possible, unless you have an idea of what specific alignment specs you want for your car. usually when i go to get an alignment, the goal is to get the alignment back to factory specs. i don't know of any "settings" for lowering springs but i may be wrong.

the only thing adjustable on the car without using other components
is the front toe.

i'd do 0.03 degrees on both sides and ask to get the readout for the
rear.
