Hi Kyle,
I got my wheels off ebay, $100.00 for the 4 of them. I am running 1/16" toe in, I am not sure of the camber/caster.
I am running Bridgestone S0-3 potenzas, they handle great but I feel 50's are too low a profile, and I think they tramline a lot. I can't afford to change tires untill these wear out, then I will probably go 185/60, (to lighten up the sterring effort) in the front and 205/60 in the rear. I know this is probably not the best set up for ultimate handling, but I am hoping to get the best real world handling comprimise, (does that make sense?) for good roads and bad roads along with decent low speed turning effort.
I guess this is what the car companies have to deal with all the time.
CU
ps. what size tires are you running?
