slight toe-in in the rear means the left wheel pushes the car slightly to the right and the right wheel pushes the car slightly to the left, they cancel each other out and provide better stability

I think it makes sense to me now. Thanks guys.

I'd like to revive this thread for more info. I am going to be running a FR-S in KYSCCA auto x and will have 17" Enkei Kojin rims (17x8/17x9) 245/40f-255/40r Bridgestone RE-11As (i know there is better but I work for Bridgestone and get them in this size for $400/set.) I have Bilstein B-14 Coils (recommended by local speed shops and auto crossers) and Raceseng tophats. also have whiteline rear camber kit and Eibach front and rear sway bars. looking for feedback from anyone with a similar setup to help me predict the handling and tell me how their auto x car is set up and how it behaves

stagger tires? not many people do that. Need alignment setup too, as that is a big deal. Take off rear sway bar and use stock.

I thought long and hard about the 10 mm stagger. thing is, My Genesis Coupe was pushy as hell. this FR-S seems so incredibly tail happy currently and it has 235/255-35-19s on it (they were on it when I picked it up.) For what I'm used to dealing with and the fact that I can pick 2 tires up for 200 bucks if I feel its too pushy, I'm starting with a 10mm stagger to see where it goes from there. What kind of alignment settings do you run? do you daily? how is your tire wear? what class do you run in? against what? how do you do? I have many questions that i'm hoping to get answered. so far I have gotten no real answers, only people bitching at me about classing. I just want to know how other FR-S drivers are fairing and what parts/settings they are running on their suspension. Honestly this is kind of a last effort with these forums. never been a big fan of forums anyway, and so far from trying to read all this stuff I see a lot of people that seem like they have issues communicating in a manner where feedback is just feedback and not commanding/insulting. I hope that is only a false perception though, because i'm looking really forward to getting to know this car a little better and learning what does and doesn't work well on it.
