toe is to do with the angle of the wheel. when the wheels were straight they sat like this (if looking down from above)

That's smart. I need something like that, cos my car pulls to the left slightly. There's a wheel alignment place in Wigan I might look at.

How much did it cost you?

cost £30 to have the 4 wheel alignment and tracking done. it was done by the company that does our tyres at work so got it cheap.

Mine is booked in for the same thing next week mate :)



I think I need to rais mine a little as I cant even 2 fingers under the arches :blink:

the wheel alignment helped big time well worth doing.

i cant get 2 fingers between the wheel and arch either :blink: i have not had any problems with not being able to clear things yet

Wow, your car's made of glass!!

How'd you get it so shiny? I've just bought a car polisher and had a quick go but it's been raining so I've not been able to have a good go.

Anyway, nice pics
