What tires and rims are you running?

That's what defines things...

205-60-13 on 6" rims got -4.5 camber, whatever caster I could get, and toed

out just a skosch.

23x10x15 cantilevers got -.5 camber in front, 0 in back, as LITTLE caster

as I could, and toed in 1/32.

...for examples....

Other tires were different, and other rims made a real difference to a radial.

Less to the slicks.

Toby nailed it.

But unless you're very experienced, with extremely consistent ETs, don't expect a Toe/Camber change to be any sort of 'Magic Pill'.

A Toe/Camber change will help refine your set-up, but won't mask poor skills.

If not extremely consistent, expect to find the real improvement in your technique, and not your set-up.

Cheers!

I ran neutral toe on 205-50-15 hoosiers. I found any toe what so ever made the steering very tough. I wouldn't be hesitant to run toe out on a super tight course. Getting the car to start turning can be a chore on the arms.
