Four wheel alignment

Recommended Posts

Ive just had a new set of TOYO proxes fitted and thinking of having the car four wheel aligned, I changed all the suspension 12 months ago and just marked the struts with the intension to get it done but never did :oops: the cars 40mm lower on eibach springs and billstein shocks does anyone know what the geometry settings are, I believe that Eibach actually have different settings any ideas please, thanks in advance

the geometry settings should always be put back to the factory settings no matter what suspension you have fitted.

 

best take it to a body shop as they have proper 'floating' 4 wheel alignment pads which are better than how a normal tyre fitter would do it by looking at the wheel at a funny angle while swiggin cups of tea, scratching arse and saying 'yeah it looks about right' :lol:

 

Just in my experience.

 

Cost me about £70 at a bodyshop

VW is about £90 IIRC
