[Mk2] [NA] tracking

[deek]

ok guys heres one for you been to 5 yes five dfferent garages to get tracking done nobody can do it for me my car is lowered 40 mm
and they cant get there equipment under the car what do you guys do when needing tracking done as its costing me a fortune in tyres cheers guys

they cant track out a camber increase

your tyre wear problem will be due to the lowering, if you need to go this low you will have to spend some money on some proper suspension mods to bring the geometry back into spec

didnt no about any of this but the thing is ive just put new track rod ends on the car and i was looking to get the wheels ligned up if you no what i mean

Don't understand:

"can't get their equipment under the car" ?????

'Tracking' (alignment) doesn't require this.

The places I've been to locate the laser guides on the four wheels. They then raise the entire car on a hoist and do the adjustments (to the track rod arms) whilst it's in the air.

What exactly is the problem with that? Can't figure that one?

Are they saying that the camber angle is the problem??

dont no much about it but the garages ive been to say the car is to low but one of them did say something about a garage that has a four wheel alignment something ? maybe i will try them during the week as they are not open at the weekend cheers for reply
