I've just had my geometry done, now that my ride height has been sorted out.

Ride height is 32 cm all round, camber is -0.5 degrees at the front and -2 degrees rear.

Tyres (unfortunately) are P6000's.

Any thoughts on what tyre pressures I should be running anybody?

Erm P6000's !

Better off running them flat !

I have a pair on the rear of mine and they are just rubbish..Sorry for being so blunt...Cant wait to change them.

26 psi is pretty much the recommended tho..

Can't wait to change mine either!

Should have mentioned I'm running 195/50 x 15's on BBS wheels, and it's a Mk 1.

I have 195/50/15 on my MK2 1.8iS. Standard fitment on this model.. Still rubbish on P6000's.. Oh and they are on the rear too which makes life exciting.. Wet or Dry !whistle

Quite a conservative alignment IMO scratchchin I like -1° front, -1.5° rear camber.

Pressures I'd probably try 28 to start with and if the sidewalls feel too soft them bump up to 30 or so - no experience of P6000s though.
