Hi Wayne,
Given your tire width, I would stick with zero camber. Maybe a bit negative, but tire wear will be noticeable. Caster, get what you can, three degrees plus. Toe-in should be held to a minimum, perhaps 1/16 inch, or a bit less. No doubt your car is a bit darty at this point anyways. Initial turn-in will be better the less toe-in you have.
There is a compromise between street driving and a bit of track driving. Depends which way you want to go, and how much tire wear you can tolerate.
Rhys
