Tracking Question

[tazman]

A friend has just purchased a 53 plate wrx sti. Can anyone recommend a tyre place in the Southend area that knows the prodive settings?

The Prodrive settings are really designed for the Prodrive spring kit, although they may be beneficial with the standard springs too!

From the Prodrive spring kit fitting instructions:

11. The tyre pressures and suspension geometry MUST be set correctly to

the figures below to achieve the full benefit of the spring package. It

is also important to settle the suspension so the geometry is set at the

correct ride height.

a.) Set the tyre pressures to:

Front 2.3 bar (33 psi)

Rear 2.1 bar (31 psi)

b.) Settle the suspension by driving a few miles on the road.

c.) Set the geometry to:

Front camber -1°15’ (-1.25°)

Front toe total 0°00’(0.00°)

Rear toe 0°06’ (0.1°) per wheel toe in [0°12’ (0.2°) total toe in]

Give these figures to any garage and they should be able to set it up for you!

I'll say the front end on my wagon turns in a whole lot better
