The car is a D Stock '92 240 SX SE. It is front engine, rear drive, IRS. No
posi. 225x50x15 Kumhos on 6x15 rims.

I am having trouble getting my Kumhos to do what I want them to do, so I'm
checking everything.

The car is reluctant to turn in (yeah, I know Kumhos are kinda like that), but
I also have not been able to get the car to drift so I can use the throttle to
bring the rear end around to re-aim the car in corners. It is very stable in
corners, and even setting front toe out to 1/4" did not appreciably effect
turn in. Hmmm.

I found that I had about 3/16" rear toe in.

Am I on to something here?

Upon checking locally, I am hearing to go for zero to 1/16" toe in for the rear.

Any other advice out there?

Thanks,

Scott Meyers
