Hybrid track/street alignment

After installing ohlins, vorschlag camber plates, front sway bar and adjustable endlinks i took my m2 to Texas Track Works for an alignment that would both do well on B roads and the 4-6 track days I plan to get after during the course of a year.


I figured I'd post the alignment sheet for anyone interested in how they set up the car for my needs.

Looks good, nice compromise. Might need a touch more front camber depending on tires you use.

Thanks, looking forward to testing it out on the track tomorrow morning.

I'm running firehawk indy 500, staggered setup on stock 19" 437's. It is an asymmetrical tire.

I'm running a similar setup, minus coilovers/sway bar-- I've found that running around -2.8 degrees gets me fantastic use of ALL the tire on track, while not demolishing my tires on the street. Running -3.0 or higher feels great on turn-in, but after poking with a pyrometer, I wasnt using as much of the outsides of the tires as I'd like. Be sure to 0 out the front toe**

For reference I've done 4 track days this season (3 spring, 1 summer) on PS4S and around 7,000 miles on the road and still have about ~40% tread left. Advanced group for track days
