Now Per's suggestions sound VERY agressive compared to the reccommendations
of Neuspeed.  Is he leaning more towards autocross performance than
treadlife or street drivability?  More camber usually results in some odd
wear patterns if the car's not driven hard all of the time. What tires is
he using with these settings? R1's need different amounts based on the
construction of the tire itself.  2.5 degrees of camber sounds like a TON
for the street.  Any comments?
