> Someone recently (Dave?) noted their preferred alignment settings, I should have written them down.  I just remember as much caster as you can get (little to none!), same on camber (about neg. 1), for fronts.  Forget toe, and rears.  
> My set up is H&R 29771 / Bilstein Sport, ECS camber plates (ground towers), 17x8 Avus 255/40/17, driven to 'enjoy'.  I think I neared about -0.9 front camber last alignment.  My outers always always wear first, then centers (esp. center of snows - gone).  Inners never an issue.
> Care to refresh me here?  Hugely appreciated, I'm aiming to mount my *new* (just for you Senor Mullane) CUMHO MX's @ lunch, then head to alignment shop.  Nothing like thick tread, a straight and wow non-shuddering steering wheel, and straight tracking car...  for what... about a week?  D'oh.  Looking forward to it.
