Thanks guys, really appreciate the thoughts!

I want to have my car track-ready... My plan is to try and do at least (1) track day this summer, and probably a handful of local auto-x.. I really want something setup that I can run on the street and the track. Most of my driving will be on the street, so I don't want something that's crazy and will kill tires.. -2.0 camber with (0) toe doesn't seem outrageous for a street-ish setup.

While I haven't gotten a chance to drive my car very hard yet (only driven 3 times since I bought it in Dec), it seems to me like in stock form the car would understeer quite a bit. Obviously by having significantly more grip in the rear than the front you're going to make understeer worse, and being close to a 50/50 weight balance putting that much more rubber on the rear than the front would seem to be understeer city..

Perhaps the best setup on the OEM wheels might be a 245-40 front and 265-35 rear or 275-35?
