Hey all,

I searched and I am unable to find this anwser... I am supposed to go get my car aligned tomorrow morning and I need help with the camber. Below I have included what size tires and wheels I have so hopefully I can get some help.

Thanks in advance,
Josh

According to the thread below a guy seemed to be running -1.5/-2.0. When I stated this to the shop, I was asked to bring the front and rear camber/toe and caster numbers...

About 2 finger width from fender to tire in front.
About 3 finger width from fender to tire in rear.
No roll or pull.

Drag DR31 Rims!
17x9
+17 offset
5x114.3

215/45/17 fronts
235/40/17 rear

With the wheel size and tire sizes you have you can almost get away with no camber. Just tell them what alignment you want and make the fenders fit the wheels.

I don't understand your question...? Are you asking for the stock front/rear camber, toe, and caster settings? Or are you asking what that guy has his settings at?

With your ride height you can stick to factory stock setting, and then roll/pull fenders if need too.
