Slippery front end

[francois]

I have a plan for my suspension and brakes but I still want to enjoy the car so I just did a little improvement last weekend.I installed a 1'' rear swaybar and when I first bought the car, I noticed that the right front wheel had some sort of a positive camber so I removed both front wheels and added the most negative camber I could get from the stock camber bolt. When I first tried the car I could feel something was different upfront because the steering felt light! Today was a rainy day so when I did a lane change, man I could feel the car sliding when running over the painted line on the pavement. Yes, a bit normal driving over a painted area when it is wet but I know that something is weird since I played with the camber. I had cars previously with camber of -2.5 deg and never had that kind of feel upfront. Yes, I did all that by eyes but to tell you the truth, everything was fine and still, the car drive straight. Wheel looks more straight but far from -2.0 deg.... Just wondering what would create the feel that I have behind the wheel.

When you change the camber, you also change the toe. You should reset/verify your toe angle before doing anything else.

yea and if you don't reset the toe you're going to shred the tires in a month. Been there, done that.

Yeah, after I sent that message I thought about that! ♫Hit me with your best shot♫♪
Not that it really matter about the tire on the stock wheel but won't put the K1's with the new ZII as of yet.
I guess I should start putting my projekt on top of my list then hit the alignment!

Thanks!
