I don't know enough about alignment to know whether this is a dumb question, so here goes...

Before I flared my car I was running 7x16s all round and the front suspension had to be set to max camber just so they wouldn't run (previous owner did this and I never changed it).

Now the flares are on I'm running 8x15s in the front with plenty of room for adjustment, so I'm wondering how much camber I should have in the front for a street/occasional AX car?

I'm guessing it's best I tell the guy at the alignment shop rather than leave it up to him, although maybe I'm wrong.
