Nice one. Your car will feel great now, not to mention it won't be pulling left or have bold inner tyre wear within 8k miles like mine did until it was WIM'ed. So far i've had the same set of tyres since mines been WIM'ed and its done roughly 10k and still have plenty of tread across the whole tyre on all four corners! I got a few WIM stickers, sure i placed them at the drivers side door pocket, but couldn't find them when i got home. Tony probably some how skillfully took them back during his tea breaks when i was busy watching his TV at the reception lol. Did you not see "The Monster" when you was there? A white lexus for drifting?

On a different note, when i was looking at your image i was thinking, oh he didn't blank his number plate, but then i saw ur user name. Then i wondered why ur avator had the number plate blanked out...you are strange. lol

Ive been driving for a good few days now and I got to say this is the first time since i bought my Lexus that i have been happy with the way it drives!!! I think it feels like it just left the factory !! As Tony had mentioned to me when i was at WIM the braking forces are changed when he does his WIM settings. I do feel a stronger braking force when I wanna stop which can only be a good thing!!!

One other thing I never knew was that when you get new tires they have what I can decribe as chalk marks on the middles of the tires. This is supposed to show the tire fitter how much tire wander there is in a tire and which direction its going. Its a shame i didnt get my tires from blackboots or just had them fitted by WIM as this would also eliminate any other pulling issues....although Im quite happy that my Lex drives perfect now. :lol: :D :winky:

Thanks again Tony for schooling me in the mechanics of tires and suspension geometry!!
