New springs...how long for wheel alignment?
« on: January 18, 2011, 10:09:15 pm »
Hi guys,

I'm finally getting my springs fitted tomorrow and was planning to book in for a 4 wheel alignment on Saturday.

Is it better to wait a while for them to 'settle' or will it be fine to go ahead on Saturday?

TIA  :drinking:
