Before everyone says it, I have searched and cannot find what im after!
My Cupra is fitted with 17" Paratech Dragon alloys and KW Variant 2 coilovers; which were both on when I bought it. I am not too impressed with its handling though really, it seems to have a lot of body roll and not too much grip. I used to own a completely standard Cupra, and cannot remember it being as bad as this (although it was a couple of years ago!). Plus the new one 'should' be better, having the coilovers, etc.
Obviously, the grip issues are primarily down to tyres - which are budget ones.
When I bought the car, the lad said he's basically just put the coilovers on when he bought them - no setting up of camber/tracking, no adjustment of height/damping. So, would getting all this done by a garage vastly improve the handling? What are the next steps to take to improve it, on top of the coilovers that are fitted? How much would; 15mm rear spacers, front and rear strut braces and 4 wheel suspension geometry affect it? Are uprated anti-roll bars a worthwhile upgrade?
Also, does anyone know any decent places to get all this done in the North-West??
Cheers
