    Unhappy wheel alignment????

    where do ppl get their alignments done?
    around dublin if possible?
    need camber castor & toe checked
    been going around the local places & what a bunch of muppets
    either get its "too low" or looked at like ive 2 heads,
    i reckon the cars a mile off after been decked,
    this could be a useful sticky thread also for anybody else in the same boat

    if the car is too low. well then ya wont be able to do it lad.
    ive had the same prob with mine on fri..
    we'd to take off the front wings.
    then ya can only set the tracking on the front and the camber.
    wont let you do the caster
    cause u need the machine set up on the back aswell

    sound man where excatly are ya?
    just decked the car & pulled/flared the archs & camber on pass rear looks fair bit off,
    do silly low offset wheels make a differece to your methods
    just few places said to put standard wheels before they even touch it
    (prob just an excuse not to do the job)

    If you put standard wheels on and track it, then put wheels with a different offset on, the tracking will be off again!!
