Corsa Sport aka Blue

Little update guys.

Have had to order front camber bolts due to the person who originally lowered the car not putting in camber bolts resulting in the inside edge of my tires looking like racing slicks...

So ordered these:

So wait for these now, get them fitted get the car tracked and get some new tread put on.

Receives the camber adjust bolts and got them fitted, knew my tyres couldn't take much more... And I was rite...



So the car now sits on a steel wheel with the outside wall slightly warn down...



So Monday I'm having two new tyres put on an tracking done and alignment done.

its looking smart mate and nothing wrong wit a bit of camber

[Harkus]

Agree but going through tyres like there free... So it's vein tracked and aligned next week to sort it out .

[Harkus]

Put the bolts on as it says to put them in to adjust the camber.

ive heard nothing but bad news about them camber bolts. make sure theyre tightened up really really tight because they apparently come loose quite easily. on a positive note, i hope they sort your corsa's tire eating problem!
Have you got the splitter fitted yet?

[jarrold06]

Yeah on my old corsa the bolt came loose I had a jimmy bar with scaffolding bar on it and did it well tight that wasn't coming loose again lol

[corsaez]

jarrold, my corsa is lowered 60mm, should i be using camber bolts aswell? this is my first lowered car

[jarrold06]

Tbh I had standard bolts in mine just did them mega tight you would only need camber bolts obv if your guna camber it

[jarrold06]

Now that's camber mate drive like that that will rip ya tyres off

[corsaez]

i dont wanna go through tyres like harkus has. ive got brand new tyres on at the mo. ill keep and eye on them.

[jarrold06]

Camber is just for trak day or shows tho cuz camber does it to tyres I'm afraid to say it be ok if it wasn't an everyday car

[Harkus]

No mate not yet the splitter is sat in the kitchen at the moment waiting to go on... . Don't want to screw it on it will look poo.. My mate says to tiger seal it on?.

The bolts have been tightened up with a touché wrench but now I know that I'll keep an eye on them...as well as the tyres.

I've gone through 2 tyres in the spade of 3 months and I've only done 329 miles or so... But hopefully they should be ok once it's aligned and tracked Monday

[corsaez]

most people rave about tigerseal, ive heard it has to set/cure for over 24hrs before its ok to remove clamps/tape or wotever else you use to hold it on with.

[jarrold06]

Cable tie mate at least if anything happens it will just brake off and not rip ya bumper off with it put 2 screws in on the side where enit noticeable
