tracking and toe and camber

[lacedr]

Just had my tracking done by a local tyre shop.
out of interest what is the standard set up of toe and camber etc.

Mine is as follows
l/f camber 0.24. Right front 0.22 caster 1.29 toe 0.06
Caster. 1.33
Toe. O.06.
Left rear camber 0.38. Right rear. Camber 0.40
Toe. 0.06. Toe 0.04
the reason I ask is because the car feels a bit lively at the back
and my tyre guy told me it is because the new bf goodrich tyres that I have fitted have a high tread depth and once the tyres wear down it will feel more planted on the road.
what do you think ?
Regards

I at least would say that the camber is not quite what I would have preferred - negative camber is much more to my liking

Most local tyre shops will not adjust the setup on a 944 IMO (bar the front toe in). I know of a couple, but that is all it is.

I thought my last S2 had a lively rear due to the tyres, but it never changed. The Turbo is very different and has had a geometry check done at some point.

Need more toe in on the back and more caster up front IMHO. That will make the car feel much more stable when braking or transitioning on and off the throttle. Unfortunately only experienced Porsche geo shops with the ability to do a proper 4 wheel alignment will be able to do it. Someone like Chris Franklin or Wheels In Motion, or one of the better Porsche specialists.
