Camber, caster, toe-in - the whole nine yards... To be honest, I don’t have a spec sheet of what the exact settings are that I’m running at the moment, but if the mechanic doing the alignment doesn’t know what the ideal settings for you would be, he is not the right guy for the job... Instead of degrees he should be asking you questions like how do you us the car, do you prefer precise steering over comfort, tyre life over stability etc. - you get the idea? There are more than one set of settings for every car, depending how you intend to use the car and what your preferences are. Guess I’m a lucky one as I have found someone who intuitively knows exactly how it should sit, based on my preferences (balance, precise feel, “turns when you turn the steering wheel”). But I don’t think you want to ship your car to Melbourne for wheel alignment
