Alright chaps.

Got 4 new tyres fitted a few weeks ago and decided to get the allignment checked. Although it wasn't that far out, I got it adjusted to the manufacturers spec and all I can say is "WHAT A DIFFERENCE" That slight adjustment is unreal.

The car feels a lot better and coupled with the new tyres the handling is superb. Starting to experience what everyone keeps saying about the Subaru grip. Still a few more miles before the tyres have properly worn in as well

So if you want a top job done by a genuine garage then get yer motor booked into Progrip, Unit 8, Canal Bank Ind Est, Bonnybridge, FK4, tel 01324 810111

Cheers

£47.00 for everything. was there for about 2 hrs though. Plus I wanted the optimum spec as per the book cos I'm fussy that way...
If I wasn't much caring about being exact and just within the peramaters -/+, it would only have been about £30.00 ish.

Thumbs up

Another satisfied progrip customer then. I’ve used the guy a few times after major work and I can honestly say he’s good, at what he does.

Can't be bothered with all that hassle m8. Once you start tinkering with these cars I feel you are opening the doors to extra problems for the benefit of a few points of a second or so. It's the P1 I've got so I'm gonna try and keep it in it's standard condition, which I'm imprezed with.

Mind you, what some of the guys on here do to their motors is awesome There's no denying that. Some magnificient modded beasts
