I have had my wheel alignment and once all the negative camber is removed, they do protrude a bit more at the rear, of course (I have -1.2 degrees each side). The RHS is a bit worse. I have measured the interior of the wheel arch from the hub face to the lip and from the hub face to the spring and there is about 1cm difference from right to left (as I knew). I am thinking that the front could be adjusted by removing or reducing the spacers Warwick uses on the upper suspension mount (where the alignment shims can go), but the rear is more than I would like. I have the R32 rear end. Will be thinking about what to do there. It is fine for everyday driving, but on the track could be a nuisance! I am not keen on guard flaring at this stage.
