RedM Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 It's for my own springs, and for stock size wheels, or thereabouts. So it can't be done on stock springs, dampers and 17s then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 It can be done on anything, but it's not right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veilsideTT Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 So...... Not one person on this entire board drives 19's with coilovers and has a reasonable geometry setup? Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veilsideTT Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 Anything would be a start! And anything must be better than the crappy UK stock suspension i already had on there with my 19's! I really didnt think this would be such a big deal, i understand that 19's f**k my handling up (accepted that before i bought them) But come on guys, help a guy out!

SupraStar 3000 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 sorry Scott, Can't help but have you tried SupraForums. Alot of U.S guys run on 19s. Someone must know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really didnt think this would be such a big deal, i understand that 19's f**k my handling up (accepted that before i bought them) But come on guys, help a guy out! To get the best out of 19'S i went for coilovers, for normal road driving and aggressive road driving it handles really well obviously not better than 17's etc, But it really does handle well! Everyone who has said 19's will handle shit are partly right, but if you have the right suspension set up its actually pretty good, can vouch for it cuz mine handles beautifully, either its a 'major placeibo effect' or im high on coke or im telling you the truth and being totally honest from my experience, and i think ive gone off the original thread...ooopss!

veilsideTT Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 There is a god! So WKDTIME, where did you get your geometry done after fitting coilovers and 19's? Do you know what the settings were?

wkdtime Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I had mine done when iwas visiting up north in blackburn, it was a mate of my uncles who has this new laser set up thingy and said he has all the jap import data etc. and said he would tweak it a little to make up for the 19's, car felt awsome after that. But TBH honest i dint ask him questions in Regard to what he did and fugures etc. Soz matey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veilsideTT Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 Here are the Lance Alignment settings: Front: • Camber - 1.0 degrees • Caster + 5.0 degrees • Toe 0.00 mm Rear: • Camber -1.5 degrees • Toe in (total) 1.00 mm Ive been advised to possibly -- have some toe added to the front. -- have the caster backed down to 4 -- have the camber at 1.5 negative at all four corners. Come on guys, what do ya reckon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I rekon with 1/5 on the front you will wear the inside edges on 19's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veilsideTT Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 I knew you wanted to help martin So keep it -1.0 on the front camber and -1.5 on the rear? Now what about the castor and the toe on the front. Should i back it down to +4 castor and add toe on the front or not? Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
