Just signed up for my 1st track day and im wondering what alignment specs would be best for all around tire wear. Im lowered on ED springs with their rear sway, and ill be running the oem 19 pret setup. I need an alignment anyway from the spring install and my steering wheel being off center so i figure ill just kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Camber plates in front. Otherwise, zero toe. That's about all you can do with stock setup to slow tire wear.

Once at blackhawk and possibly once at road america before winter. Oem alignment with max front camber? Or just purely oem

There's no front camber adjustment and "oem" will likely leave you with varying amounts of toe-in. Just zero toe and go.

Ah cool you're somewhat local. I'm going to blackhawk on aug 7. Should be heading to road america in october if the weather holds out. Other than that hitting up a bunch of new tracks that I've never been to in between. Putnam park and NCM! Will be heading to grattan and gingerman again before the season is over.


But yes as stated, oem doesn't allow for much camber adjustment unfortunately.
