CBA to go back and check, but is it lowerd now? If you lower it your need to set the tracking as it will be wayy out from standard height to say -60mm.
Its always a good idea to do the tracking after a wheel/height change as it will affect it slightly. But I would say that as I do it myself lol

Yeah i 100% would do that lol. The garage that did my MoT changed my track rod ends, and "forgot" to do the tracking, I just think because it was low they couldn't be bothered to do it... My front tyres went bald within a month! Was pissed when i took it back there.

They'll be on when i next get paid at end of January so i can get tracking done
The coilovers are now fitted and it's slammed on it's arse,100mm at front and 80mm rear but I've got the adjuster in for now but still got old alloys on
Once i put the Softstars on i'll take adjusters out so it sits lower. I'll not be putting any photos up untill my Softstars are on

Mehh, still need pics! But fair enough if you want to keep it hidden till the wheels are fitted
And the wheel refurbers picked them up this afternoon, they will be back next thursday and fitted the friday

Not much of an update but here's some photo whoring of how the cars sitting now before the Softstars
Coilovers are fitted and are sitting at about 70mm rear and about 80mm front i think,i also tinted my rear lights red,so much cleaner
Gave the car a good wash today with my new Meguiars shampoo,some SRP and some Dodo juice
Here's some pictures

Yea mate,once i've got paid i'm going to get the tracking and camber done at the same time. My dad rang the place up and they quoted £60 for the lot,have to leave the car with them with it being a days job
The camera is a Samsung NV11,nothing special with effects and that but looking at the pictures it does the job with what i want it for
