hi guys, just after some advice really, ive made some adjustable arms for my ka, now im wandering what is the best setup to be used, just want to set the camber, i use it mainly as a fast road kind of car, and the odd track day, the reason i changed the arm setup is im wearing the inside edges of tyres at an alarming rate, ive got a camber guage, so after a ball park kind of figure, thanks al

The 'best' set-up would be done by a 4 wheel alignment centre who can put back a flat footprint on the road with your adjustable arms.
Its no point anyone guessing as its also ride height dependant - and that is a figure we dont know.

If anyone wants to set it to standard book settings simply walk away.
If a place has a four wheel alignment set-up, it should have an operator that at least knows how to use it.
When he's done mark it all up.
Then get a feel for what its doing when your on your trackdays, and as its adjustable try adjusting something if you dont like it.
