Bagged. Spaced. Shimmed.
Fitted my rear camber shims today, just went -1° and happy with the results! :)
I'll let the pictures do the talking! ;)

Advantage: I think it looks better :)
Disadvantage: Inside tyre wear :(

Its sits really nicely :smiley:

Could do coming down a tad on the fronts!
What are the things where it pushes the rear wheel crack towards the back ?
-
Cheers Wayne :)
Didn't want it sitting on the mudflaps Toby ;) But they will be coming off and sideskirts on withing a couple of weeks :)
Ahh you mean the axle shims? I need to read up on those ;)

Just rayvern, people slate them but for £500 you can't go wrong :)
As for ride quality it's pretty good to be honest, and no rubbing, can get an arch gap if 5 inches within two seconds ;)

Sweet :cool:

I'm guessing £500 is management only, which bags/compressor?

Looking spot on there mate!! :afro:

Cheers Sveed :)
£500 for the lot Dom :)
I do love a bargain ;)
The front bags are firestones on Avo struts, rear bags are also firestones and fk shockers :)
So it came with everything needed for fitting, inc compressor, tank, valves, and all the electrics :)
Best of all though, it's remote controlled by key fobs. :smug:
-
Was looking at that kit a while ago, but heard mixed reveiws so decided for coilovers instead. seems a bargain though, aslong as non of the bags go pop or anything :D touch wood.
also you must be the biggest scene whore on here, air, camber and hastagging titles :grin:

I had also heard mixed reviews but being a full time mechanic anyway those those can be sorted easy enough ;)
As for a scene whore..I just like Instagram ;) haha

Bargain of the year that!
I'm looking at Bagriders bags, Airlift V2 Management & Viair compressors which comes to the best part of £2k :shocked:
-
£500 new or used ??? How comfy is the ride mate ?
-
And when you fit it yourself the price doesn't get any higher :cool:
Second hand of course :)
I've heard good stuff about bagriders too! :)
The ride on mine actually isn't as bad as some twine about, I have more roll than coilovers but thats a given, plus thats without a front anti roll bar, will fit my new under driveshaft one when I get time :)
The fronts dampening is fully adjustable too so I can set how much bounce I want..or don't want ;)
