F30 Alignment Specs for KW Street Comfort?

I just replaced my Dinan Springs mounted on MSport dampners with the KW Street Comfort coilover package on my '14 335i xDrive.

When I installed the Dinan Springs, they suggested modified alignment specs. There don't seem to be any suggested settings from KW.

I emailed KW and the response I got was "you can go custom or stay with the stock settings - it's up to the individual customer".

I plan on mainly running the car on the street.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I would go with the stock settings, but you can play with the settings and see what you like... but +1 for stock settings

+1 on OEM specs. You'll pick up negative camber as the suspension is lowered. With a modest drop, you'll probly be able to get back close to your original setting in the rear, but there is no adjustment in the front w/o installing camber plates. You should be fine With the amount of lowering that the SC suspension provides. My front camber wound up at the bottom of the specified range.

So how do the KW Street Comforts compare to the Dinan's?

What settings are you using in the front and rear?

Any regrets?

Thx
