Hi all, just some quick advise on toe settings if possible?

I had the camber and toe adjust on my EP3 last week, after reading lots online I went for -1degree camber all round and had the front toe at 0.

The car handles really well, feels great though the bends and generally really well. The only downside is that in the dual carriageway the car feels quite twitchy, in that I have to keep adjusting the wheel to keep the car straight. It's quite annoying.

I'm wondering if by putting a small amount of toe in on the front I will cure this without detriment to the rest of the handling.

I don't profess to be an expert, always happy to be taught and open to suggestions.
Cheers

Car is a 2002 Civic Type R EP3 With hardrace camber arms on the rear and camber bolts on the front.

Cool thanks.

I have a new set of tyres going on this week so will get a small amount added each side to see how it feels.

Hi Dave

Yes it took away that skittish feeling on straight roads. I haven't changed the setup since and it's been great, balance seems great.

I do need some better tyres, Toyo Proxes are just 'ok' in the wet!
