Title: New springs...how long for wheel alignment?
Post by: apollo13 on January 18, 2011, 10:09:15 pm

Hi guys,

I'm finally getting my springs fitted tomorrow and was planning to book in for a 4 wheel alignment on Saturday.

Is it better to wait a while for them to 'settle' or will it be fine to go ahead on Saturday?

TIA  :drinking:

Lee

Cheers Andy,

I bought a set of H+R 30mm but my mate who's fitting them has some sportlines knocking about Iv got the choice between the two  :happy2:

Cheers for the spacer link mate  :drinking:
