Need someone who can read this- Alignment
Need someone who can read this- Alignment
Hello,
Did a few searches but nothing has same specs as my car...
2009 G37 coupe manual sport
HSD coilovers
Eibach front and rear camber
20" Vossen CV3 rims
Not sure what else relates...
I drove the car after the alignment and It felt really weird, almost too responsive. Where my specs out that bad that I just need to relearn the handling? Are the new specs inline with what I should expect?
Thanks in advance!

UPDATE*******
Drove 2000 miles on my tires and look at the rears WTF. Took it back to dealer and they adjusted rear camber to -1.36 and toe to .14 on each tire. They will also cover one of the new tires needed to replace the mess.

You had way too much front toe before. It mutes your turn in response (car is slower to enter turns) but the trade off is it will make the car feel more stable.
I would say yes, you just need to get used to the new more agile feeling that your car is supposed to have.

Usually too little toe is rarely a problem w/ lowered Gs but might want to get a bit more toe in the back, tires are almost pointing perfectly straight and want just a bit of toe-in in the back. Do you have to run that much camber to tuck your tires in the wells, or do you want that much for tight cornering? You'll be getting accelerated inner tire wear w/ camber over -2. If you don't need to tuck your tires I'd shoot for camber in the -1.6 range or less.
I agree with both...
though I have Stance SS's for Coilivers and no front nor back camber... just the toe bolts... thats it and I'm at 1.7 I think if I remember... though too tire size will play a issue to tuck or hit if not cambered...
Meaning when I had a 275/30/20 I was over 2+ on a 10.5 +25 offset... now running new Square set up 10.5's +25 offset with 255/30/20's and have more room to play with yet now after I see how much of a gap i'll go to a 265/30/20 DWS's and add more tire to my set up and still have it close... the 275's were just to much for a wide rim yet the alignment ...
Just give it a Month.. you'll get used to it... with Sways. Strut bar yet coilivers its like a Roller coaster and it sticks to the ground tight...

Thanks guys, It appears the specs look "ok" just need to relearn the handling with the new alignment. It really felt off.
Blair I totally know what you mean by rollercoaster ride, I drove over an overpass just over 70 mph and as I came over the lip the car stuck to the pavement and I almost lost my lunch all over the dash. My stomach just dropped.
