    Rear suspension settings for street car

    Afternoon everyone,

    Looking to get thoughts on camber/toe settings for a street car/highway rolls. I had written down stock camber/toe out front, and -1.0 camber and .1-.2 toe in out back. Would it be worth it to get rear adjustable camber arms and set it up that way? or is stock sufficient for traction at my power levels, <500whp.

    Broadway static suspension, 10k/14k combo that Jaze recommends. Currently running squared 245/40/17 BF goodrich comp 2's now but thinking of going to R888s out back. Motor is a stock s50(arp/cutring/spacer) with spa t3/gtx3582r .82 housing, on 14psi current, looking to bump up to 18 soon. (92+meth)

    yes
    Speaking from a straight line traction scenario I would think you'd want your camber near zero to get the most contact area. It will squat under power as well so as long as your rate of camber rise isn't too high it should be able to keep it mostly in contact with the ground. I don't see much reason to change toe from whatever the factory specs are.

    I run -0.5 rear, .1 total toe on my 255/40-17 rs3s and it hooks up fairly well for 700+wtq. My comp-2s hooked well on this setup from 2nd gear rolls on 475whp
