I really want to be able to rotate tires from corner to corner, and I'd prefer to keep it as simple as possible. If it turns out to be too complicated, I'll just run 255's in the rear on the OEM wheels and call it a day.
The question Fin asks is a good one. IMHO, if this is just for the street you can leave the camber alone.

If you do track the car, the stock camber settings are way too conservative and the car will understeer like a pig. Pushing the camber out to -2.0 to -2.5 with a zero toe will wake the car up handling wise....

Just my two cents.
