Top Mount Replacement - Wheels Misaligned? Please help

[wavo]

Hi,

I am after some advice, hopefully someone can help.

I Have a clio 182 cup.

It has standard wheels on with spacers.

It has KTec Coilovers and Pure motorsport top mounts

My top mounts were perished and failed the MOT.

I have replaced the top mounts with new pure motorsport top mounts. When replacing all i did was undo the shock bottom two bolts, remove the 3 bolts holding the top mount in, took the shock out, replaced the top mounts on the shocks and the put the shocks back in the car the same way they came out.

The problem i have now is, in the picture you can see the passenger side wheel is sticking out further than the drivers side, before i take it all apart again to see if i can find out why.

Does anybody have any idea why it is like this and how to fix it?

Any help would be gratefully received.

Whenever you undo anything to do with the suspension it will automatically throw the tracking out, changing parts just makes this more pronounced.

Thank you for your reply.

I thought tracking Adjusts Toe in / out and camber

This looks like the passenger side has a spacer and the drivers side doesnt?

Are the Coilovers camber adjustable?

I would have the wheels off and just check everything over regardless with it being so different.

I didnt even think of that, yes they are camber adjustable with a washer, i must have the washer in a different place, ill put it on the ramp and take it apart and see, hopefully adjusting the washer should make a difference
