Booked in for Monday.Thanks for the heads up CHILLR. He's wheel alignment price was quite high compared to most places but I'm only after a couple of bushes and maybe a camber kit so I'm happy to pay a couple of bucks for that.

I've got around 5mm of thread left on each stud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that's where they go.Maybe I should just leave it to the professionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuff all camber for the street to get good tyre wear and chasing around 3-4 degrees for the odd track day. Stock height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
