Installing Bilstein/Eibach combo, need alignment specs Getting Eibach Pro-Kit, SLP Bilsteins and BMR relocation brackets installed tomorrow. I really need your suggestions regarding a good alignment. This is my fourth Camaro and none of them have ever had a great alignment regardless of who performs the work. This time I want to have it done with my specs.
Good tire wear is important, as I will have 275's up front and 315's in the rear so no rotation possible.
Looking for a well-balanced everyday driver with nothing biased totally towards handling. Would like to track straight even if not a pool table smooth road.
My wheels are 17x10" with a 49-mm offset. Will center with a BMR APHR.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

With 10" tires, you will get tracking.
I drive with -1.5, +4.5 and .003 toe, wears good for me but i have to use 2 hands to drive. Maybe -1.2 for you. All my opinion of course.

--Based a some research here on LS1Tech, I'm thinking -.1 to
-.5, +4 to 4.5, and 0 toe. Read that once lowered it might not allow up to +4 so go for the most caster possible.
The Eibach/Bilsteins/relocations went in today. It's dropped now!
It was too late for an alignment but I'll be damned, it rides significantly better! Tracks more linear and doesn't wander as much. Still going to get one though. .
