when i was down 60 my tyres lasted forever.. soon as i put coileys on they just desintagrated. you can get camber correcting bolts for your suspension though.

link for bolts?

also people who run crazy camber for wide rims, they use shims, can you get them that go the other way?

is it possible to elongate the bolt holes in the suspension turret to move the damper out abit? thus adjusting the camber?

Only thing is as you bring it out it will be getting closer to the arch and you may get scrubber dubbing.

Camber adjustment bolts MAJORLY alter the toe of the car, you MUST get it tracked when using them, I thought I would be safe then tried driving the car on the motorway ... TRAMLINNNEEEEE

i would be getting it tracked after anything like that. Where did you get yours from mate?


also, could i elongate the bottom shock hole. this would move the bottom of the wheel further in instead of the top out?

Yup I've found them cheers

Do they fit in the normal hole or does it need altering? My camber is out 1.5deg so these would be perfect

Cheers for the info too, as I also need to do this, as my right front is almost bald on the inside.
