it was basically undrivable, scrubbing on the outside or the arch - scuff marks to prove!

just had word back from the guy I bought the kit off, he sent out some new 20mm lowering springs for me!! Can't really argue with that, will let you know how I get on this time.

I'll make sure the front is OK first before going onto the back!!!

Got the camber and tracking done both were out, and woe what a difference!!!

Good job Rowlers glad you got it sorted in the end (this thread is useless with pictures  :grin: )

So would you recommend the seller then? Did he charge you for the new springs?

Certainly sounds great: now all you have to do is the rear ones  :grin:

rear ones tomorrow, no charge for the new springs, hasn't even asked for the old ones back yet!  Deffo reccommend the guy - hes been more than happy to help me sort it out!!!

I've got an unusual look now of a golf with the back end sticking up as opposed to the usual back end sagging!

I just hope I clear the speed bumps on way to work!

cheers for all the advise fellas, and piccies will be posted tomorrow.

PS will my 15*7 et 28 ATS CUu still fit??? they best had after the hours Ive spent polishing! :grin: :grin: :grin:
