Keep that mofo perfectly level and be done with it. No stagger, don't jack it up.

Every mm of this thing looks best when appearing as glued to grade as possible.

This is an old pic with my old Tein Flex Z coilovers. It had a slight rake. I think the rear's were like 2-3mm higher than fronts.

Forgot to mention that I was running 245/40/17 Sport comp 2's. I'm not experienced enough to tell you how a rake effects this car. But all I know is that with the Flex Z's and the RSR Sports I, I had the same rake set up and the car feels very planted in the turns and stable. I'm running -1.5 degrees of camber in the front and -2.0 in the rears. Very confident inspiring around the canyons.

Mine is on lowering springs designed to give it a little rake for better handling.

Just to add, this is what I would be going for "rake" wise. I really like this stance.
