Wheels In Motion
I was having a few issues with the front of the car and had not had the geometry re-aligned for over a year as I had a lot of work planned for the car last year.
I was getting excessive tyre wear on the front tyres, steering was feeling very light and the front of the car was twitchy under heavy braking or hard acceleration. The last time I had the car aligned was immediately after I poly-bushed all of the suspension arms and I had my local Honda dealer apply the same settings that I had setup a few months earlier by CG.
I arrived at WIM 10min early at 08:50hrs and the car was on the ramp, tyres checked and the alignment equipment attached in less than 15min. (I was also given a couple of tokens for the cofee machine
).
A quick chat about what I wanted .... the OEM Honda alignment settings which I had used previously for a number of years and know work well on my car.
The settings were pulled up on the computer and a few small adjustments were made to allow for the weight reduction on the car. I must say that I was *very* impressed with their computer and alignment equipment.
Within the hour the chap had gone round the car and got the wheel alignment within spec and then gone round the car again to get the alignment spot-on.
No messing about or bulshitting and the job was completed at a cost of
