Oh yeah i see, how have you adjusted the rear camber then. a technical method or spaced of the hub?

no wonder JPS's are rare, they're all in AUS........

i havent adjusted it. The car is lower than standard, downside of the irs design is you increase negative camber when you lower the suspension.

I need to modify it to be able to reduce some of it, need to take a few degrees out. Otherwise, if im real lazy ill just buy a set of the kmac eccentric bush ones and be done with it.

no, i never really noticed that mate, they came from an e30 straight to mine and i never really drove the car a whole lot with them on. Was it a bad bend? did it cost you much to have repaired?

55 is an awesome price, we get good prices, but not that good :lol:

Good tread secondhand perhaps?

brand new tyres, some chump bought them for his 16" wheels but didn't realise his wheels were only 6.5" wide so they didnt fit properly or something like that and they wanted to get rid of the tyres

Did you have any problems running those wheels without spacers on your e21? Mine are touching the steering tie rod ends... or whatever they are called. Had to take them off today, and put the 13"s back grr
