We think it was around 120-130 at the back and around 70ish on the front.

The Camber sat perfect as well

I did thois on my corsa rear springs, on 16's, jus put the spring in on its own without the adjuster, would say its more like 70-80 rather that 120-30

If you see it parked next to a 60mm dropped corsa you would know its near on double that.

The wheels were only 15's and look how they are rammed in the arches
