I tell you this guys, forget about the power, this car is not made for power, however it is very nimble and tossable after I modified its suspension and the light wheels + sticky tires!

 

It is me again, I have been observing my tire wear with -1 camber, most of my driving is highway, about 90 miles per day, so I noticed I am wearing on the outside! Inside is still untouched brand new tire!

So I called Belle Tire to see how far they could get from my spc bolts and the alignment guy told me -2 !!

I am going to go -1.8, what do you think?

 

Recheck toe.

 

0 left -0.01 right last time I was there

 

Are you enjoying your new setup a little too much?

What is your are your tire specs and tire pressure? Sorry if you said it before and I missed it. If your pressure is too low and sidewalls too tall and you're doing a bit more hooning on corners your sidewalls are probably rolling over.

I wear my tires more on the outside consistently but I throw my car around on/offramps a lot.

-1.8 - -2 is fine, you should just max it out like I said before. I'd also check to make sure your bolts didn't come loose and move or something.

 

I 100% agree with mkane

They need to check the toe again

Also, are there any "fun" curves or on ramps? It is possible you are hitting these harder now and doing some where on the outside edges... but unlikely.

What PSI are you running?

AND most important, go all the way to -2.0. The handling improvement is dramatic. It will not cause any additional wear AS LONG AS toe is correct. Until you get over -2.0 (2.5+) then you will cause more rapid inside wear.

 

Correct toe means zero?

 

But why wear more on outside if toe is off with neg camber... unless there's toe in now instead of out? Yes might be worth checking again for this.

What is stock caster angle? I know it's not adjustable but curious.

Yes zero toe Rabee.

 

^ YES

"in spec" is broader, but to run more camber, and not effect tire wear, as well as give better turn in, you want it at ZERO.

 

Yes! Will be there tomorrow at 8 am!

I want to prep the car for an auto-cross on this Sunday

 

now i can realign my car again today been a week and 1000 miles on new springs

gunna set at 2.0 and 0 toe was at 1.5 before camber

 

GREAT! I want to hear how you like it!!! ADD PSI TO THE REAR TO GET IT TO ROTATE. At least 40psi. Looking forward to how you like it and want to see pics and video

What springs did you swap to? -2.0 is where it is at

 

Swift

yeah i cant wait to see how the 2.0 will feel i got no camber issues i rotae every 3k or less depend how i been driving lating witch is slow lol

 

Yep, your doing it right. What rates did you settle on F/R? I just swapped my rears from 7" 10K to 6" 10K and am MUCH happier.

 

8k front and 6 k rear cant be too stiff rear since baby coming the 6 k rear mad bigg difference comers way better feels more planted to the floor i love it alot : ) compare to the 3.8k rear before



any day now she is 1 cm lol

 

Yea, shoot, I think 6K is the MIN I would ever run again in the rear LOL

Congrats man, I'm sure you can't wait to be a father!

 

Min ???.........

 

Minimum

At 10K now... and want to try 12K with better damping

 

Ohh lol Dummy me


12k rear woah


hey what ya gunna do with the 7'' rear spring 10k wanna sell it lol
