Few photos of my car from the Castle Combe show!

My car often scrapes on roads with camber, but on the way home from work it was a constant scrape and ended up like this:

if you can't make it out, it's this

and a video just before it actually fell off (Sorry about the wind noise, not a good idea to put phone out the window >< )

Went to lower the front more today, front tyres showing wire on the insides...ffs.

But yeah, it's definitely tracking right? it's not like, my coilovers or anything rubbing against it?

edit: photos

This wasn't even a bad patch

Just lowered but needs to settle

Doesn't even look low now without my heat shield ;\

how low are you now its looking awesome

looking mint mate, good work

Have you not sorted the wheel aligment? That would be a lot cheaper than a new set of tyres.

I guess you would hear a bad noise if it was rubbing against something.

Looks like you had a major amount of toe out, they wore down extremely quickly! It will need re-aligning yeah. In theory you need to have it aligned whenever you adjust the suspension, but you can usually get away with adjusting 10mm either way without drastically throwing anything out.

Cant believe youve had 26k views on your thread you whore. And thats 3 points and a fine for that tyre lol

Looking low as fuck now man you got the helper out and bump stops cut?

Whats next on this list...... hair cut? Bucket seats? interior? Hair Cut?

No helpers and got like 10mm left (i didnt measure..!)

looking mint mate, good work

Cheers man, i love it

i hear lots of knocking noises, but idk what's coming from where?

Is there anyway i can get it re-aligned without raising it, cause surely that'll just throw it out again?

ahaha i didn't even notice, is that a lot?

still got the bump stops, just no helpers as they didn't come with any?

Hair is staying, happy with the mk3 golf leathers, need exterior done, Hair is staying

the knocking noise could be te same problem as i have if its from the front wheels my lower arms and bushs are on their way out so everytime i turn the wheel it makes a knocking sound from the front

hope that helps

oh right i just had my exhaust heated up and bent away from the driveshaft because it was touching it the rest of my exhaust is ready to fall off because of the amount of times i have scraped it and whacked it on things

i had the same with my gti alex, just get the grinder out on the chassis leg
