What are the geometry settings of my car?

The geometry settings can make a great difference to the handling on Evo’s so it is important that they are set up correctly. It is worth getting them checked fairly regularly (at least once a year although Pirelli recommend every 6 months) and obviously when you have changed any suspension components. Below are the standard factory settings but note that the factory set the geometry to a tolerance (not shown below). A wheel alignment specialist will set it more accurately to a specific figure so even a brand new car off the production line can benefit with a professional wheel alignment set-up. For an explanation for the terms used in the table below and for details on how to fine tune the handling characteristics of your car then see "Can I improve the handling by changing the wheel alignment?".
