Question 4 Wheel Allignment

I am going to get a 4 wheel allignment check on my MY 02 WRX
I have seen the optium settings on scoobynet before but i cant find the post.I believe that the prodrive settings and also TSL's settings improve handling and also virtually eliminate the bump steer that the car suffers from now.All advice appreciated

search harder mate - there are loadsa postings out there! Decide for yourself before you go how radical you want to be (and can use) - fast road, full race etc. general consenus is roughly as follows 1.5 degree -ve camber front, ALK, minor toe in, zero toe rear (or maybe even slight toe out) and similar camber. Cambers can be increased if want to go more radical. Also need bumpsteer mod and stiff rear droplinks and maybe stiffer rear ARB. Does all make a HUGE difference!

Cool

[Thanks Mark,
Looking for fast road use not to radical
Does the altered settings have much affect on tyre wear?

I think you will find tyre wear will improve, but you will enjoy the car so much more, I doubt you will ever see the improvement......
Remember to buy the best tyres you can.
