What's your alignment like and what kind/size tires are you running? Any other suspension mods?

Wheels and tires are 245/40/17 Dunlop ZII's on Enkei 17x8 RPO3's.
Alignment is -2.2 camber in there rear, -1.5 in the fronts. Toe at 0 all around, Caster factory specs.

Only other suspension mods are the WL Rear Camber Bushings.

I DO have the WL Rear Subframe bushings, but they are not yet installed.

Thanks!

Definitely a lot to gain from more front camber! I would start there...at least -2, more if you can.

Front control arm bushings with added caster would help too especially in lower speed corners with more steering input.

A swaybar set (possibly the RCE bars ) would help, BUT IMO the alignment is more crucial at this stage.

Car looks damn good...

Just installed my Tarmac 0 with 350/350 springs this weekend. I haven't had the chance to do any fun driving yet, but so far in casual driving, the ride is firm and responsive, but not harsh at all. It's absolutely tolerable for daily driving.

Did a couple of autox event now and I am enjoying the results. Good choice imo 350 is a tad firm if you live around lots of bad roads and train tracks but completely living able. No noises or issues with them as well.
