I just wanted an even 1 degree -ve camber side to side, as lowering the suspension exagerated the side to side difference in wet handling. I could have easily gone for 2 degree either side, but being an everyday car that gets driven sencibly for 95% of the time, I went for 1 deg.

I only do 200 km per week more or less , so I think 1.5-1.6 would be perfect.
I used to have a Toyota Starlet 1.3s (1988) with 2 degree camber and It was very fast on corners

Any decent garage can do the usual alignment but for a fast road one you need a motorsport specialist to fit camber bolts and shims to the twingoas not many places will offer this.

No matter if just redo standard allignment or "fast road" allignment, you will always need camber bolts on the twingo as it has no adjustment options to do that. They rely soley on part manufacturing tolerances when they bolt the suspension together

1degree doesnt sound like much.. But how would that affect your tyres?

 

[MovingShadow]

I would go 2° but no more than 3°
