as above. before it started happening i had already changed track rod ends, lower ball joints, had tracking done, new lower arm bushes. (it handled really well) and most of these things needed doing. but recently it has starting to pull to the left and the handling has gone a bit funny - seems to skip around in corners, doesnt feel direct, has a mind of its own over bumps and understeer a lot more and tramlines.

ive checked all bolts are tight and there is nothing visible wrong with suspension

its a corsa gsi lowered 40mm on bilstein sprintline kit with 16" alloys (45mm offset)

the only thing that hasnt been changed is the top mounts

any ideas?

You had the alignment done after you fitted the new wheels and suspension right? Sorry about the stupidity of the question
