Default What does a Geometry Setup Consist of?

I'm going to fit my new coilovers (when I get them) myself, and want a geometry setup done after.....what does it actually consist of? And whats the average price?

I've had this info from a company:

The Geometry set up prices are as follows:

Full Wheel Alignment is £125.00 + VAT

Full Wheel Alignment including Ride Heights is £160.00 + VAT

Full Wheel Alignment Check & Set up - Including Ride Heights and Corner Weights is £260.00 + VAT
Should you require any further information or advice, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Cool, thanks mate.

Could you list everything they do etc, and the price.

Thanks

Should be

Front camber, front castor (if adjustable via top mounts), front toe.

Rear Camber (if adjustable) and rear toe while ensuring the rear thrust angle is correct.

Never have ride heights (unless its an all four up or down by the same amount) without corner weights!
