Jaffa your car sits perfect. I want to add camber but not 100% on how I'd do it and get it matching each side perfectly. Also worried about tyre wear!


Go get an alignment and tell them how you want the rear camber but tell them to zero the toe (toe eats tyres worse than camber)

Thats what i did and im running around 3 degrees  :happy2:

Lowered, KWv2 Coilovers.

225/45/18 front
225/40/18 rear
8.5/9.5

Carry people in the back no issues, no camber adjustment (as minimal avail on the rear with 9.5's).

Revo Stage2 - With Linear Throttle
Revo DSG
BCS Turboback Powervalve - This is a must.
ITG Closed Intake.. wooosh

Here to enjoy and help, with a hint of sarcasm, please do not be offended

Yep, plenty where i live Monte, no issues  :smiley:

All i have done is arch screw mod at the front, both sides. I was going to get some work done on the wheels to make them et50 and tuck them in then go a bit lower, but this seems okay.

Laser Blue 3dr No 209683, Leather, Monza II's and a few other goodies...........GONE but not forgotten......now in an A4 S-Line Avant 170tdi......god I miss the Gti.
