My Visit To Dr. Tony Today!

Well - based on all the reccomndations on LOC over the last few weeks, I have been waiting till after Brunters to get my 18's on.

Having done this on Monday, and driven to work this week, I really wasn't happy with the set-up. I have been PMing Tony, and I rang him this morning to see if he could fit me in.

Sure enough, he welcomed me down, and I set off on my 90 minute trek down the M1.

For anyone who is not sure about whether it's worth doing or not - let me assure you, IT IS.

Without a shadow of a doubt, my car handles like a dream now. I saw that there were several settings way out, and all the alloys were not balanced correctly.

But the steering is now sharp. The handling is crisp. It drives like a new car.

Thank you very much to Tony from a very happy man.... :)

Good to hear Zee, well done again Tony..

It's a bit worrying about the wheels not being balanced properly. You probably read in my post, I had the same problem. One was way out :unsure:

Like Tony said, it's a bit worrying when your paying around 800/900+ for wheels, that they can't balance them properly.

You are more than welcome :D As you saw most times any geom is a "balance" of figures, and most times things work out well...its all down to understanding, simple maths, but complicated area :unsure: even more so in your case with the osf camber incorrectly set in Germany.
