Now I know about the tracking which I am having sorted this week, but what about a geometry setup? The front tyres are wearing quite badly on the insides now that the car is lowereed. What is involved with changing the geometry and can I do this myself (penny pinching? maybe?)

 

You need to take it somewere that does 4 wheel laser allignment.

Ive just had mine done after tyres were run off the same.

They found the tracking and camber was out and it took about an hour to sort out.

 

How is the camber adjusted? I understand the principles but cant see any adjustable bits and bobs down there

 

dunno, just know mine was done...

 

If you have a Prodrive setup that is perfectly normal tyre wear as they use lots of negative camber for better handling.
But then again, your current setup could be totally screwed.
Expect to pay about £50 from a Kwik-fit type place or £100 from a Subaru specialist who know what they are doing such as Powerstation, TSL, or Power Engineering.

 

I had mine done by TSL when they fitted by Eibachs. I get wear on the inners. I'd say the inner 1 inch is bald by the time I've 3-4mm on the rest, but It DONT ARF CORNER !

Depends on what you want, but I'd not bother paying for springs and then worrying about tyre wear.....
