What alignment adjustment is there stock b13?

So I picked up some toe plates, fishing line floor tiles plumb bob and so on. I am really set on tring to fix my alignment myself this time around. My car has no aftermarket adjustability upgrades yet. I am trying to find some suggestions what exactly I can adjust on the stock stuff, and how much I should adjust it to. Should I settle for factory settings or is that all there is to adjust anyway?

I do have coil overs and 16in wheels for summers that I don't want to wear the tread off prematurely. I have also been considering useing smaller bolts for the struts to gain some camber good idea or bad?

Thanks for any feed back at all on this

I wouldn't run those skinny bolts. Just push the top of the hub in when you tighten the stock bolts. I think I have around -1.5 camber on my car from doing that.

I think you are right Setzer my struts seem to be slotted. Will that camber cause uneven wear if I do find it?

Look in the Tech area and I explain how to do the alignment with a laser and your toe plates. Strings suck for thrust adjustments. Get your floor level, check camber, balance camber with oem slop in the bolts, then set rear toe then front toe, drive car to set front thrust. If you need help post in that thread and I will help you out.
