I went exactly the same, except only 1mm toe (total) on the front.

Car still doesn't tramline and handles fantastically! Slight oversteer in lower speed corners (mainly due to a heavy right foot :oops: ) but very stable at higher speeds and best of all, no understeer! :mrgreen:

Yep what RWF said,

Had mine done Thursday morn before going out to track,

max camber front and rear, max castor,2mm front 1.5mm rear.

Made up nearly 1.5seconds with track wet through dip.

Book in with Simon at Yeerongpilly.

I don't ask for anything special but the aligner set to suit a trackday. :D :D
