Do stock racks have a vague feel at the steering wheel an inch either side of straight ahead? Is this pre-set in the rack's factory valve-ing?
I know quick-racks are available but I'm not going there. I've already had the Road Response Pack fitted a few years ago.

A geometry specialist in E.Kilbride is going to fit Whiteline bushes to the rear-end so as to adjust rear camber and adjustable front strut top mounts. Stock mount bearings are a known weak point.

10mm of the inner O/S/F tyre shoulder had worn to the canvas while the rest of the tread was fine.

Thanks for your thoughts. I've always run 36 psi and it's now new Continental up front and Goodyear F1 at the back until they're done.

Hi Ron my fronts are the same getting around 20000miles to 25000 miles out the tyres front and rear ... Rear ones always wear in the middle and are fine on the sides where as the fronts only really wear on the inner edges, I replaced the top struts and mounts, replaced the drop links and had it on the hunter laser 4 wheel alignment and it's still doing the front inners lol I think it's just the weight of the car up front and how it sits .... Mines up at 82000 already so I've bought a few sets of tyres wink
Thanks.
Do you know if yours got Monkfish's Road Response Pack done? (Some Poly bushes up front and possibly rear plus changing the geometry settings)
