adjust camber

Featured Replies

Is there anyway to adjust the camber on an oem pre fl vrs?

Im just having 2 new rears with next to no wear bar the inside shoulder

More likely to be toe out. Its all adjustable.

On the rear camber & toe is adjustable

 

On the front only toe is easily adjustable.  The camber & caster can be adjusted by moving the subframe (the bolts are 10mm in ~14mm holes) but many aligners don't know it's possible.

 

You can also get aftermarket console bushes that allow some adjustment.

I know how you feel, I had the same problem with my vrs eating the back tyres as quick as the front tyres !

I don't know if you know that Skoda have changed their camber settings on the rear tyres to hopefully stop the sawtoothing...

I had my vrs all aligned on a hunter rig at a place in Nottingham about 6 weeks ago, I don't know all the about the actual settings, but I do know the camber settings changed from 1.45 negative to 1.20 negative whatever that means !

Hopefully I've managed to attach my report sheet to this reply !

The car is booked in at imperial tyres, swindon on saturday for a full geo check. Fingers crossed they will have the lastest info and can sort it out

even 1.2 is a fraction too much.  Ask the tech if he can bring the rear camber to the extreme of the adjustment range - it will be like negative 0.8 to neg 1.0

Just had a look and this last set of Goodyear Efficent Grip Performance tyres lasted 14k on the rear. Not bad if the alignment is miles out like it seems lol

that's not terrific.  They don't do any work - just stop the bumper bar from scraping along the road.

the wear was over an area of about 1.5" x diameter. All on the inside. Rest was like new

 

I know its not good, my vans rear tyres lasted 50k+
