Eccentric Top Mounts

[Matt]

Got some fairly harsh camber with the coilovers fitted so need some eccentric mounts to sort it out.

Let me know what you've got and how much!

Any pics of the camber issues matt? i ran standard top mounts on mine, and didn't have that much of a problem.
Are the strut to hub bolts holes eccentric on the coilovers?

[Matt]

Haven't really got a decent pic. It isn't that bad tbh but I just don't want the inside of the tyres wearing quickly because of it. The holes on the coilovers aren't eccentric (I assume this is where the holes are elongated to adjust the angle of the hub?). You can see a bit on this pic of how the wheels sit...

Hmmm, Just out of interest, what coilovers are you running matt?

Have you had the wheel allignment checked after you've fitted the coilovers?

[John]

New ones here matt, £39 each.

Get it checked matt, if you haven't at least adjusted the toe, it will scrub badly, and make driving it feel awful, also causing premature tyre wear. Lowering the cars centre of gravity, will greatly affect the toe.

[Matt]

Cheers John. Aye, I'll maybe just leave them for now and get them checked once it's gone through it's MOT. I've driven up and down my road a few times and it doesn't scrub or feel that bad tbh. Just the excessive wear on the tyres I'm bothered about.

[John]

Like i said tis deffo worth spending the money having it checked and adjusted. Will transform the handling.

[Matt]

Fairdoos, I'll get them properly looked at first before I go spending nearly £100 on top mounts!
