Low car and lip isn’t a problem when this ramp sits dead flush with the ground when down.
-2.5 camber in the rear means the wheels are tucking again. Looks weak, but no rub.
Ever since my last wheel alignment I’ve noticed that the drivers side rear rubs a lot more than the passenger side. I could visually see that the drivers side rear tyre was much loser to the guard than the passenger side rear. It’s bothered me a lot. I just assumed VW’s are built this way but when I was hanging out with Anthony (Carbon Lotus/R36 Twin Turbo Golf owner) the other day he told me that the rear subframe can be aligned, and that most if not all VW’s are out of alignment from factory.
His guys at Spinning Wheel Tyres had done his car, and a few other VW’s so I booked in and today I got my alignment done. Great guys, super quick, heaps of great advice regarding set-up too (I know many of the MX-5 guys use Spinning Wheel).
They think my car has been set up WAY too stiff. I agree but I can’t adjust the rears without dropping out the rear shocks (so so annoying). Will have to do at a later date. For now, straight rear sub frame and no more rubbing in the rear (I dialed the rear to -2.5 like my previous alignment with the CROSS coilovers).
