car is looking sweet mate, I'm not a massive fan of camber shims but your car pulls it off quite well

:lol: i am on phils good judgment (did i just say that) :lol: that the wear isnt that noticeable....i still think i may need shares in mytyres haha.

cant see it being a problem for mot i have 12months before my next one so i will see when that happens...if i haven't already gone through 40 tyres waiting i will let you know if it pases with them on.

you take of the drum remove a washer from the stub axle and it reveals 4 bolts undo these and slide the shim up behing the stub axle and put it all back together!

all this effort for exessive tyre wear, :lol:

it was gonna wear away on the arch if i dint fit them, meh! :lol:

arches need pulling more me thinks!

only takes an hour to do

ahh ok :)

nice 1111 BRUUVVAA :lol:

Awesome dude awesome!

8-) :cool:

needs the fronts doing to match ftw otherwise it looks abit weird

still pimp thow ;)

mine went straight through its recent MOT with shims on so no bother there, and honestly with the sort of camber they generate you won't notice a massive increase in uneven wear. lowering a car with a fixed ream beam generates negative camber anyway and you don't see people panicking about it then!

With Phil on this!

i had mad camber at front on the polo, and i hammered the miles before it got robbed, and the tyres still looked sweet, no problems there with wear!

rubbing made more damage on the tyre by far! and that not takin into concideration the burnin or paint and arches that rubbin does!!lol!

Christian dude, hammer the car down as far as it goes and get some front shots up!
