While I like your enthusiasm and the early bits are right, the last part isn't. This is basic physics and no matter what you feel, its not faster with skinner tires when we are talking 215s.

I have crash bolts and 225 Star specs for RTR. First try at alignment was -1.3 front camber, 0 front toe and -.9 rear camber with .4 degree rear total toe . This was too much rear toe for stickier than stock tires. I went high because my first autox in this car was on stock tires, and I spent most of my runs leading with the rear. Happier with .25 total rear toe. It came set at .14 total rear toe from factory, and I may go back to that after I get Strano's front bar in.

.24 total is what Im at now, going back to stock toe as soon as the bar comes in myself.

Just put my 235/45/17 michelin PSS on last night and got aligned today. Got to -1.2 camber in the front. I asked for .2 total toe out in front and -.2 total toe in on the rear... dumbass did .2 each side (for a total of .4) out front and in rear.... sooooo I will see how it fares this weekend at sebring. I have a feeling it will be a little too agressive but idk yet. I have toe plates but I don't like messing around with rear toe at the track.
