Recommended Alignment:

034Motorsport RS3 track use alignment specs; these specifications are optimal for a track driven car with a very "loose" handling attitude and lively rear end that drives towards oversteer. Caution should be used with these alignment specs as they can cause the car to over-rotate and spin, especially during throttle-lift conditions while turning:

• Front: (Tires: 265/35-18 Michelin Sport Cup 2)
  • Camber: -3.0 degrees each side (034-601-1013 camber mounts)
  • Caster: 7.1 degrees (not adjustable)
  • Toe: 0.6mm (toe-in) each side

• Rear: (Tires: 245/40-18 Michelin Sport Cup 2)
  • Camber: -1.5 degrees each side
  • Toe: 0.8mm (toe-in) each side

Our test vehicle is also running 034Motorsport front and rear sway bars, and all 034Motorsport spherical Motorsport line of products.
