King springs for the ve's

[Damo83]

Great Pic Buddy, when u have those springs installed, does it need adjust at the rear wheels to make them straight. Cos last time I fitted SSL my old VL calais Turbo, the rear wheel is so look bent. Hence making the tyre wear very fast.

Wont it make any difference by putting King springs in stock suspension?

I've been trying to figure out what you mean by 'bent' wheels - what you're defining is called Camber. When you lower a car, it throws the camber out, or in other words tips the top edge of the wheel in, so you need a wheel alignment to correct it.

do camber kits do much on the VE i know some camber kits do little certain cars...... is it a worth investment? and how much?

 

[TinSnips]

Depends how much camber you need - from memory the VEs can do upto 1.5 deg of neg camber without a kit.

well it would be with ultra lows on stock wheels.......... i think it would need it.....

Nice ride bakes are those 20's or 22's ?

Thanks mate. They are 20s. I used to have 22s but hated the scrubbing and performance. The 20s drive a million times better, I can hammer the car without scrubbing, etc.

Gday mate, Yeh that what I meant camber. I was trying to remember the damn word lol, Im just wondering if i put SL front , SSL rear. will it need the camber kit fitted?? or only just get wheel alignment to correct it? Thanks buddy
