Message	what camber are you guys satisfied with? Past two days I have been playing with -4 degrees in the rear and -2 degrees in the front (immediately post CO install), and my cornering was absolutely phenomenal. Per Dr. Kuahs suggestions for a street setup that is a compromise between tire wear and cornering capability, my alignment guy set the camber to -2 up front and -1.5 in the rear. (Stock caster, 1/16" toe in). Took some twisties, and my cornering has drastically decreased to the point in which I'm not happy. My test area is a dead end alley...yesterday was able to take the sharp right and sharp left (90 degree turn) at 50 mph without any tire screech, now I can only duplicate that at 30. I was wondering if anyone has found a happy medium with more camber without the downside of the tire wear i.e. any good experiences with -2.0, -2.5, etc? ********
