Tracking and alignment - Wheels in Motion
« on: 24 November 2019, 13:46:08 »
Popped down to see Tony at Wheels in Motion again this week. Great service as ever and the droning from the front traced to under-inflated tyres (was as a result of using a badly calibrated gauge) and not bearings, also led to premature wear of front tyres.

Two new P7s fitted, balanced etc and the car is transformed.

The alignment specs were checked and fond to be still as per Tony's last setting ages ago. V pleased with him and the two fitters Ross and Liam. A refreshing change from the usual can;t be bothered attitude you get in many places

People grumble about the cost, but that journey is always worth the effort  :y

I've always used STS in Strood. Closer(2miles for me), cheaper and know how to use the kit on a real car.
