If you want more steering in general, you could try the ten degree blocks for the upper arm...

Another tire combo I like is Parma grey rear/coral front...
Thats what I was looking for. A kinda guide line to follow. Thanks a bunch.

I should have it ready for wed to get a few shake down runs before FRI night.
