Guest Olly_K Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 what about a local tyre garage ?discount tyres are pretty good (well they are where i am). Pick up the yellow pages matey ! Link to post Share on other sites
jcorallo 0 Posted January 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 so do "discount tyres" do camber adjustment? I'm guessing they just do tracking?most places I go dont do camber - god knows I've tried makes you wonder how places like Halfords (who also dont offer camber alignment at my lcoal branch) get away with replacing front shocks if they cant align it after?Jules Link to post Share on other sites

jcorallo 0 Posted February 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 ahhh - i know where you mean! I'll give em a try.I didnt go up this weekend as it was forecast rain - just got to wait for a clear weekend and I'm there.Pretty sure Only VW are closed at weekends though.

chris22manc 0 Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 i think they do evrything but be careful they tend to overcharge.when i went to national they fitted my wheels,exhaust and susspension for £80 Link to post Share on other sites
