DD or track?

Either way it will depend entirely on what the OEM spec is for camber and toe. As you go lower to the ground the suspension geometry changes such that toe in increases, and camber gets more negative. For optimum tire wear you shouldn’t have any toe in/out, and under 0.5 degree of negative camber.

:dunno: Fuck it, just set it up with 10 degree postive camber, it’ll look dope!

1/4" toe out, and as much camber as you can get.

do you want to handle good? 1° - 1½° neg is usually good on the street. Anything more neg and you might have some bad tire wear.

its a solid rear axle camber shouldn’t change out back front should be ok ideally you want -1 to-1.5 degrees the whole way around

got -3 on the si just needs a bigger rear way and it will handle like its on rails freaking 15mm rear sway ftl 25mm progress ftw
