Corrado_Addict 0 Posted October 27, 2008 Hey guys, Recently fitted a set of 16" team dynamic alloys to my rado. They are the correct offset and fitment etc, made sure i triple checked this but they are sitting in a negative camber, the old bbs wheels ran in line without any problems so I know nothing has changed with the car. I compared both wheels to double check again but its still the same, A couple of friends have said once the car has been driven they'll be fine because the suspension needs to settle back down after its been jacked up? Car is currently off the road atm, wheel bearing and hub needing done and I need to get it mot'd so there's no chance to legally or safely drive it either. Any help is greatly apprieciated :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A1 VR6 0 Posted October 27, 2008 Are you sure the centre bore of the wheel is the correct size and doesn't need a spigot ring? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corrado_Addict 0 Posted October 27, 2008 Yea I checked both of the wheels to make sure before putting it back on. Few guys have told me that it needs to be driven for the suspension to settle and then they'll be fine Can't actually drive it at the mo due to no tax or mot but that will change in a couple of weeks, was just a bit worried but will see what happens.

vwdeviant 0 Posted October 27, 2008 Bounce it to get suspension to settle a bit, or if you have room and some mates just push it forwards/ back.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 27, 2008 I'm guessing the top of the wheel is poking out of the arch after dropping it down off the jack? That would be positive camber and as already said, you need to drive the car to settle the suspension to it's correct position. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corrado_Addict 0 Posted October 28, 2008 The bottom of the wheel is sticking out, can give it a good bounce anyway its not moving for at least a week yet Missing driving it so much :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LisaK 0 Posted November 14, 2008 I've got Team Dynamics on mine but in 17s. Only the rears sit with negative camber though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corrado_Addict 0 Posted December 5, 2008 I feel like a complete twat lol I was looking at pictures of the car and the wheels did have a negative camber on them, the fronts had positive (reasons for which I do not know but was like this when I bought it) but they've now been set with a slight negative. Can't wait to drive it properly....trackdays ahoy :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
