Last time I asked about the runs I had just missed out on it but then I got quoted £460 inc. VAT collected from them.

I bought some camber shims today, for the rear wheels. Just need some longer bolts now so I can fit my spacers, should look good when it's all sorted Cool

They look like this:

 


You have to push bits out the middle, to set the amount of degrees you want, all looks quite complicated TBH Laughing

As for the tyre wear, I spoke to someone who runs camber on Nankangs and he said they were fine, and a hard wearing tyre, so that encouraged me to do it. The stance is bothering me a bit, wanna get the spacers on the rear, but I reckon I might get some rubbing then, that's where the camber will help though! Plus I love the look of the camber I've got on the front Cool

The front wheels poke more than the rears as standard. With the spacers and the camber it should make a nice difference, will look wider and beefier. It's all about the stance!

Outside the place I got the shims from there was a mk3 Golf, it looked a little tatty, but it had some nice wheels and awesome stance, and that's what counts Razz

Yeah mate I have, particularly as one of them keeps getting condensation in it. Unsure though and not too bothered if I'm honest. They stand out but then they also match the front lights aswell.

I can safely say they wont be getting smoothed off, lol. Also my centre caps are chrome so the repeaters match them I guess!
