D-limo Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Have a good look for any part numbers on the arms and cradle. Bit hard to tell from that angle but toe looks fairly neutral?

wolfwood Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 um toe is all good, and i have the smae problem on both sides so something is f**ked up.. im now running s13 coilovers in the back. im not 100% sure but i think before i installed them i didnt have this problem, although it was alot higher so yer... the arms and the cradle seem to be the original parts, i do how ever have adjustable after market rear toe arms and after market rear camber arms...

toffy Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 it is a common problem, theyre all like it, yours just looks worse because you have 18"s , adjustable suspension will fix it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172133-help-wheel-placment/#findComment-3171264 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfwood Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 well on further inspection its only the one side where the wheel sits further back so im assuming the adjustments are wrong on one side or something is bent, will just have to wait till i can take it to a suspention shop so they can set it all correctly, anyone know of a place on the goldcost or even brissy that i should take it to? ta ben Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172133-help-wheel-placment/#findComment-3171627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
