Lowered the front of my car tonight -40mm on springs only (rear is
standard still) and the front wheels are getting to wards the horizontal
mark,
a) i assume i need to get the tracking /camber sorted asap
b) can say bush tyres do this for me?
c) how much would i be charged roughly for tracking
thanks in advance,
faz xx

the car is sitting lower in the middle, so therefore pulling the sheels down (top of wheel closer to car cnetre than bottom)

Thats negative camber, which cant be adjusted unless you fit adjustable alloy top mounts.

camer spacers are for the rear to give negative camber, when you lower a car at the front it normally does bring the camer in slightly witch is a good thing really,
iff you have coilovers like my cheepo ones the camper is adjustabale via the bottom fixing bolts
