Hi peeps, I'm taking the elite for geometry and new tyres Friday morning. Garage is listed under WIM but couldn't book online, girl on phone didn't seem to know much especially when I started talking about adjusting car etc, probably because she's just the receptionist, so I have the front camber and toe in figures. Does anyone know the caster and figures for the rear please? Thanks.

salloon rear-Toe in 0"20 + -10"                                                          Camber   1"50 + - 10"
Estate rear toe in as above                                                               Camber   1"40 + - 10"
Max deviation left/right      .25"                                                       max deviation left/right  .45"


hope that helps

If they're part of the WIM approved network then Tony should give them the correct figures

Agreed - watch your tyres go bald on inside edges using these figures

Is Sykes talking about the rear only?

It is, but as said didn't seem to know much so that hardly gave me any confidence in them knowing what they're talking about. I don't want to turn up 80 miles away (yes the nearest WIM affiliated place to me is 80 miles away), for the not to have the figures, which is why I'd want to go prepared.

Oh yeah thanks Symes too much camber for the fron, are you just talking about the back there? 1'50" seems alot?

Sorry, symes I meant.

Give Tony a call to discuss before going

You only get the 'wim' service from an affiliate when booking through wim
(Unless you KNOW the garage has plenty of omega experience)
