So I tracked every car I owned and I usually run at -1.8 on the front and around -1.2 on the back.

-1.5 should be sufficient..but then as you probably know it also depends on your toe in or out

Toe in and out effects edge wear as well.

The only way to really know if your set up is maximised with the limitations of your car is to get the best bit of help which is a tyre temp gauge.

This helped me a lot by tweaking my suspension settings so that the end result was the temperature across the tyre was much more consistent and even and there where no large hot spots in one particular part of the tread.

I picked mine up for around $120.
