u will need to do the tracking and i wouldnt do it yourself u can get it done for £25ish at your local garage i'd say.

And as someone said the corsa has no adjustment on the camber unless u buy a special kit for about £80 mine is lowered and just on the standard camber and dont really have any problems

How many hours work for all 4 wheels? How do I do the tracking myself?

About £30:

Deep offset ring spanners set £9
Adjustable Spanner £3
Spring Compressors £15

A crowbar comes in handy for the rears :thumbs:

I popped down just as they were closing so may have been a rush decision. But if got the Eibach kit in my room waiting to go on.

i would get the tracking checked after u lower it cause mines was out (tho i never checked it b4 lowering ) better safe than sorry .
the camber shouldnt b too bad if ur just lowering it 30mm and u cantadjust the camber without accentric top mounts i think
maybe am just speaking crap tho

I'm going to put some lowering springs on (30mm drop eibach prokit)
is there any wheel alignment or camber adjustment I need to do after
fitting the springs? Want me tyres to keep wearing evenly and the steering
to track accurately.
