jimmy_supra Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) I have recently fitted 19inch jade r wheels on my cr and had a set of coilovers fitted. I am thinking it is probably best to have a geo setup done to make it right. I live in matlock 27 miles north of derby and about 25 miles south of sheffield. Does anybody know of anywhere near to me that can carry this out on a supra. Thanks Edited April 8, 2009 by jimmy_supra (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy_supra Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Quick google came up with here http://www.challengertyres.com/wheel-alignment.php Thanks for the link. I thought a full geometry setup involved more than just a four wheel alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy_supra Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Anybody else offer any guidance on this matter. Whats involved for a full geo setup and also if anybody knows anywhere good not too far away from me. I have found a couple of tyre places that do 4 wheel alignment but was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for places they have dealt with. Any help appreciated.

steve spedd Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 what coilovers did you go for mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 stock geo settings + 19" sucks, you need someone who knows how to compensate for the different setup you have. Center gravity is a safe bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 It will allways be a compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-Brett Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 stock geo settings + 19" sucks, you need someone who knows how to compensate for the different setup you have. Center gravity is a safe bet. Im on 19s and want to get mine done soon also. Does anyone have good geo settings for 19inch wheels ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I am thinking it is probably best to have a geo setup done to make it right better. I hope they're the correct offset! (an in joke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy_supra Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 what coilovers did you go for mate? got d2's mate, but then subsequently found out they are not that good. Story of my life always find out the hard way. Still trying to get them setup right by nitro, going back tuesday third time lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilkorangerover Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 go back to 18`s and give me the 19s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie-R Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Am I going to have the same problem if I go from standard wheels to 18s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Am I going to have the same problem if I go from standard wheels to 18s? Lots of people driving around on stock geo and 18", ignorance is bliss lol, while you cant beat a proper setup, as a short term fix try adding 2 degrees caster and zero toe to the front.
