Big trick is too understand that the higher the tire pressure, the looser the car will get. While having the alignment maximized adjusting air pressure can tighten or loosen the car up. Car tries to get loose in back ,drop tire pressure a pound or two.
One good book to read is How to make your car handle by Fred Puhn http://www.amazon.com/How-Make-Your-...our+car+handle
GREAT book.Lee Abel
