Tein S-Tech, Stock Wheels, Camber Bolts, Alignment. Yes, I've used search already.
 
Ok, so before you tell me to use the search function, if you can answer it, then just go ahead and answer it.

Sooo...Car is lowered on Tein S-Techs (And no, my shocks won't fail at 4k miles. It was an install problem on that other thread.) and went to get it aligned today after putting on camber bolts.

I'm still on stock wheels. (If you want to contribute to the wheel fund, I have a couple of sales going on at m3post.com.)

Should they have adjusted the camber up front ALONG with the alignment? The car is sitting at -1.1 all around according to the guy. Is that too much? Is that wrong? Am I going to die? Where do babies come from?

The only thing the guy said was wrong was that the toe was negative and fixed it. Should he have put the front camber to stock? I'm so confused.

I'm going to get a drink now...Thanks for any and all your amazing advise!

Cheers! *klink*

the camber isnt the problem, TOE is, but he already addressed that.

what shop is this?

BRZ/FRS has McPherson struts in front. That means upon compression, you will get more negative camber and once you go towards full compression, you start to go positive on your camber. You will essentially end up with close to 0 degrees of camber upon full compression. All you need to do is fix toe, which your shop has already addressed. :thumbup:

I just went to Scher Tire here in Tustin. It's right by my house and offered the best price.

-1.1 all around sounds fine to me, only a little less than my car is running. If they got the toe set, you should be good to go. Drive and enjoy!
