Not Ranked
Front Tire Width: 235/60R15
Rear Tire Width: 275/60R15
Camber front: -0.5°
Camber rear: -0.75° (less camber in the rear than front would lead to oversteer)
Toe (in) front: 1,5mm per wheel (toe out leads to better turn-in into corners, but less straight line stability - enjoyable in the mountains)
Caster: 3° (not the most critical measurement. Make sure left and right are the same)
Toe (in) rear: 1,5mm per wheel (less powerful cars can use less because the rear deflects less). Never toe-out.
Front Spring Rate: 450 lbs/inch (ride comfort is defined by front spring rate)
Rear Spring Rate: 560 lbs/inch (this depends on your ratio) Too hard rear makes the car oversteeer
Car: RAM LR Roadsters (UK) with Jag XJ6 Suspension parts
Wheelbase: 90"
Weight (approx.): 2,000(!) lbs.
If you can, go on a track with a tyre pyrometer and measure temperatures after a few laps.
