hmmm.

Jason - snap them up. Sounds like a good deal regardless of postage costs!

You could try pack and send i've had good dealings with them in the past, and they're reasonably priced.

Alex......you da man!

Cheers for that info, 2480 is Lismore NSW, none of those places ring any bells so I'd say not. According to their website would be $18.15 postage for both (7 kg, regular, registed).

Tell her the ones on your car have eroded in size, and pose a safety risk!

Used to work for me when I had a missus(to-be).

always a good idea, I tell mine they're "safety enhancement" mods ... cos if the car handles better it has to be safer

When it comes to cars bullshit wont work.
She has built a car for herself.





BTW the alignment I did was slightly out, steering wheel is off center
Machine is out of calibration (or Im out of calibration) so its a "toe and go" alignment tomorrow.

2 deg. neg. camber/1mm toe in all round = fuggin awesome!!

Sounds very 'chuckable'. Be interested how the tyre wear is. Thinking I might grab those sway bars but I asked about a rear a while ago from another member. Ill see what the go is there first. Cheers

Is very "chuckable".... point, shoot, HOLD ON
Teeny bit oversteer keeps it feeling really tight thr the corners

Be interested how the tyre wear is.

I keep pretty good eye on em ATM and they've stopped "feathering" on the outside edge since going from 2mm to 1mm toe in.
The rears have been at 2deg for bout a month (since I lowered it) and don't look to have worn excessively. Will keep an eye on them (as usual) and might be bit premmy but just quietly I think I've found the sweet spot... well for my setup anyway.

No worries

Jase, have now done approx. 5000k's (2deg neg cam, 1mm toe in), tyres still wearing evenly (actually think they're wearing more evenly now, as they used to wear on the outside more) still a bit of feathering on outside egde of rears, only really notice it after a spirited run tho.

if you give your car a hard time around the corners you cant avoid the outer edge on the front tyres getting ripped up.... you drive hard your tyres cop it hard!

Sorry Buzz, just noticed this.

Thanks for the info. Very helpful.

I actually took the car into work the week before Christmas to fit the camber bolts and give it some more neg. camber (not really happy with -0.6deg) but the other machine we have was telling me the thing was toeing out by 4mm front and rear. WTF!!! So I bailed and went home!

I think I'll end up using settings close to yours (maybe a little less neg camber) now I have an idea on tyre wear.

Cheers.




To Alex, Morgs and Tom,

BWHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA....HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA.
Those things look horrid!




BTW What the feck is with stretch fit tyres these days?????
