Wheel Alignment done without weight...

Exactly snap with mine Phil regarding the seized Tie-Rod. Is it really worth it though, they're only out by 3 minutes of arc, and the main thing is that they're even on each side!

Did they have trouble getting the rear into spec? Did you have your rear trailing arm bushes done? I'm not sure if i should do mine, as they are apparently problematic on E46's... They had to use ratchet straps on mine as a person couldn't physically bring them into spec - mine was actually toe-ing out on the rear, the car felt dangerous!

I should have been more clear that when they corrected the rear the front went way out. As I had issues with handling on smooth high speed roads I decided to fix it. Pair of track rods fitted was only £120 so got it done..
Final after is all green and drives like a dream.

Not changed my read bushes as they all seem OK

Incidentally put my lifted jeep on the system and got that running properly. Could barely go straight at 60 now - well let's just say it cruises in the fast lane

Meyle HD is great stuff. Used it in all my front end refresh. Better than OEM and better prices

No - don't want more camber. Not interested in track performance nor wearing inner shoulders off. Stable high speed with no wandering suits me fine
