Thanks Tony

Given my previous exploration of suspension issues thread I had checked out my arrangement. Am confident I have the lower arms set forward as you describe and uppers rearward with shims at front too.

Agree in that I don't want to be grinding bits and pieces and I am not sure what gains I'll make on lowering the car.

I do know my aligner managed to gain about 1 degree of castor on one side of the car through manipulation of the suspension, to bring it up to about the 2.5 degree mark. I think this then compromised his ability to improve the camber on one side and thus he had to keep the settings equivalent at about the - 0.5 I have.

Just keen to tweak a bit more of bot into the car, particularly camber.

What ground clearance do you have in your car Tony?

I know the 50 series front tyres on my car add to the roomy look in the front wheel arch and lower the overall ride height slightly, two reasons why I'd like to get 60 series tyres onto the front.

I might just have to compromise until I get the rims I want with tyres to suit.

Cheers
