the coilovers are very good, u just need to be careful on what size wheels u have, and they require more effort toset up.

once its good, there very good.

i have 205/40/17 et49, the camber is set equal on both sides (dont know if its set correct tho), but when on axle stands, wheels sit like | | (looking at it from the front, and when u take it off the stands, the wheels are like / \ and both pointing away from each other, the problem is it really aint even safe to drive 10 yards, which is why i think something else is wrong, i am gonna try adjusting the tracking just to get it to a garage for them to set up tracking properly. am i barking up the wrong tree with the tracking tho??? as the wheels just look wrong!! any pics of positon of top bolt would be grand oh and where did u get the camber tracking done?
cheers.

it is the tracking if there splayed out...

camber was done at garage that fitted them.

also ET49 is not good for coilovers, u WILL need 5mm spacers to get them on right.
