Hi all.
My new (to me) Elise S2 needs a wheel balance up front and I suspect the geometry is not quite right also.
What local places in my area can I trust with the wheels for balancing (I'd consider a main dealer on recommendation) please?
Thanks

Nick

A-Line in Dudley are well recommended for geometry. If you want to pay more, then Chemix (Storubridge, Halesowen) have a good reputation.

Would have thought DRM are worth a call, especially with a Lotus.

A-Line in Dudley...Kevin is very knowledgeable, friendly and gives loads of free advice. Helped me with my 996, drives like a different car!

Thank you all. Seems like I failed to tick the notify of responses box (again).

Hi.

Dropped into A-Line today as I was near by. When we looked on his system it came up as either:

Standard
Sport Pack
Super Sport Pack

All Lotus Elise options for 2000 onwards.

Anyone know which option I should choose as he didn't seem sure?

My car is an Elise SC 2009

Thanks!

Just a quick line to thank you guys for the recommendation of A Line wheels.

I dropped in yesterday afternoon with the Elise and they balanced the front wheels which were quite out and geo'd all the wheels which were also out by a bit, so a job worth doing and all for £55.00 so I came away happy.

The Type 25 Elise has the 'Sport Pack' settings which are same as Exige for those that might look in the future.

Cheers.
