  • 2nd gen wheel alignment

    Found this thread. What do the figures mean?

    Mine are set pretty much straight ahead by eyeball and long pole method, but I dont know if thats correct, and whether the other settings are correct because they must have changed with fitting of balljoint spacers...

    The camber/caster angles are to do with the pitch of the wheels to cope with road camber and cornering etc.

    They need to be set up pretty much spot on, or you'll get uneven tyre wear, and will affect the handling/braking, particulally in the wet

      You are right Andy, fitting BJ spacers changes the camber quite a bit. Luckily the lower wishbones have cam bolts fitted so adjusting them is easy, you just need to find a decent alignment place that knows what they are doing.
