Re: How to measure Wheel offset.

There may be a couple of other considerations to think about when talking about tyre fitment: Scrub radius (front) - this is basically an imaginary line from the top of your strut through your lower outer ball joint (when veiwed from the front of your car) and to the ground. Now find the centre of y...

Btw - the balance point for the pivots were "perfect" and I could spin the car 360 deg with one finger ..... so that was nice too !

Auto Trimmer required

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a quality auto trimmer in Melb South East (at a reasonable price) ?

I need to re-trim all my inside panels/door trims to a "new design" with some embroiding as well.
Will probably leave the seats for now (only running fronts anyway).

I have just bought an electronic speedo from the States.

They even copied the artwork from my original LC Lancer speedo so that it should look bloody close to "factory" :)

Haven't fitted it as yet but very have with the service, look and price !

I'll have complete LC frt and rear bars available some time in the future if anyone wants them.

I'm changing over to LB bars - but need to make sure that it all works first before saying goodbye to the old ones !

From someone that has an SR20 in a LC Lancer ..... don't do it !
You will have trouble clearing the steering, the gear box is much bigger and will need tunnel mods and the brake booster won't fit ...... other than that BLOODY GREAT :)
