Haha, I don't want to get told off by JV and I can't be arsed to do a proper one. I'll change it soon, maybe.

Thats the boys. I had a puncture and they were the only place that had the same tyre, trust me it wasn't out of choice.

Mine on Eibachs - they actually ride very well, but then I don't have it dropped on its knees.

But it aint rocket science.  All they need to do is let the air out, brake the beads, and rotate the tyre 180degrees on the rim.  I thought every tyre fitter knew that!  They really are incompetent monkeys at Thik-Fit.  If I ever drove by a Thik-Fit garage on fire, I'd empty my petrol jerry cans on it.  :rolleyes:

I've never seen rear height adjusters that sit on the top of the spring before, all previous brands of coilovers I've seen have had them on the bottom.
