Tracking

[DomP182]

My 172 pulls and tramlines badly but as I was going to replace the shocks springs and top mounts I decided to sort it afterwards replacing it all.
Today I've been to have 2 rainsport 3s put on the back and check the front tracking hoping it was going to be way out but it was dead straight. I know some of you like to run a bit of toe in/out, my car is pretty uncontrollable to the point of being unnerving. Any thoughts?

What tyres are on the front?

 

[Mr Trailer Man]

What were the results? Let's see.

My 205 tyres tramline like mad, I'm going to pick up some 195's when these are done as it supposedly makes it less noticable.

 

[DomP182]

Ok so now I have to admit that the place that fitted the Rainsports on the back(195s) checked the tracking but on an old school system so no print out but it was bang on straight ahead.

Tyres on the front are budgets and 205s, front to back swap may be an idea?

 

[DomP182]

One other thing but not my top priority right now is that the rear isn't sitting as low as I'd expected on cup shocks and Grams springs.

 

[Mr Trailer Man]

Budget tyres are the first thing to get rid of.

 

[imprezaworks]

So you have 195 and 205 tyres on the car?

Get four matching tyres and go from there

 

[DomP182]

I do as of today and appreciate it's not a good idea but the problem was there beforehand. As soon as I get paid I'll be doing the same on the rear. I'll swap them over tomorrow and check over the track rod ends etc.

 

[bloke]

do you mean it's set parallel?

Better tyres, tracked and put back the oem springs. Thats the cheapest way if you want less tram lining
