What have I done wrong!!
Discussion
Well, came to the end of the body pre-fit today after fitting the doors.
I must say I was pleased with the results, so I thought I'd fit the wheels as per the build CD.
They fouled on the body work. How
did I feel.
I currently have the struts fitted not the ride height bars but I thought doing it this way must still be ok as it's how you'd change a wheel.
All the measurements were as per the build cd.
Any offers, apart from "should of got the factory to fit it".
Thanks
Michael

Apologies, yes they foul on droop.
The car is currently up on stands etc.
The front n/s hits on the side pod, the rear n/s goes on but is very tight.
The front o/s wouldn't go on at all, and the rear o/s didn't get touched as I was in tears by then!
I've set everything to 0 as per the prelim setup.

Cheers for the responses.
I'll pop out to the garage shortly and try re-fitting the ride height bars. I'll take some pics too, so you can see how good/bad the fit really is.
On the discussion of factory or self body fit, I did intend (and have a slot booked) with the factory. It was after a few discussions with them that they said it wasn't rocket science and to do it myself.
Only thing I'd add to that is the build cd needs updating to take into consideration a few tweeks needed to get some of it right.

Well, what can I say guys.
Only managed to do the front wheels so far but I'm pleased to say that they went on first time with the ride height bars in place
I have to tweek the O/S slightly but that was the whole reason of fitting the wheels.
Here's some pics:
