Where did you get your camber bolts from, how many, and which holes?
Had a go at fitting my wheels this week end, rolled the lip nicely, then just went for it and flared the arch about an inch, still need some camber though. I adjusted the stock one all the way in but still don't think it's enough...

Reference your arch flaring what did you use for it? trolly jack handle or an appropriate tool

The camber bolts i have i also imported with my wheels but i believe Eibach make them available via Demon Tweeks 16mm thread IIRC (x2 required) These go in the top hole on the hub

Nope, proper arch roller, same as Arch Nem use, only difference being the 'tool' on the other end (me) ;]

Just the camber giving me ****. Pretty much there for now. The next stage would have to be chassis notching on the rear some slight signs of some rubbage

Chassis notching, sounds a bit serious, although, looking at your pics, I want to go pretty much the same, if not a little lower, so I think I need to look into this :/
I'm going to Mod Nats at the end of this month at Peterborough, you?

That will get you started. Plenty of Patience To keep adjusting them and the ability to block out the sound of parting rubber lol
Yes the camber bolts do the job but it's not a case of fit them and max them out, doing so you risk rubbing arch/wheel which I done a little. It's just a case of keep adjustng until it's where you want it.
Not sure how 2 camber bolts will work though.
Went to fill up tonight after my first proper drive since adjusting the camber and it wasn't to bad. On the plus side grinning ear to ear as I walked out the petrol station priceless. Very happy with how it's sat at the moment
Do the bolts not give enough camber then? Did you fit one set or two? I've got 3 set, but I reckon 2 sets dialed right in should sort the rear but the camber adjustable top mounts on the front should be enough

You use the top one to pull the top of the wheel in and the lower one to push the bottom of the wheel out. I only fitted the upper ones in the end, still rocking 4* of camber though
(and thinking the front needs to go lower...)Thanks again for all your help :]

one of the best looking scooby in the uk BUT im not a fan of ruining the handling of the car... each to their own
BTW where did you get your tow hook from? im guessing if i get a rear diffuser im going to have to cut a hole to allow for it.
