Also, on the fronts above the topmounts I have camber adjustment. Is that part of the ohlin strut?

As cheap as possible.. :lol:

I think a complete second hand kit would be the best option. Just haven't seen a Radtec or any other good kit for sale in a month or so... I think £400 for a kit would be close to the limit.

Re: wheel off set help

The offset of a vehicle's wheel is the distance between the centerline of the wheel and the plane of the hub-mounting surface of the wheel. It can thus be either positive or negative, and is typically measured in millimeters. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L_gmO1xMx3I/TT-yE0m9JCI/AAAAAAAAJ5Q/8VcBVEA8cAY/...

Re: Heavy steering Help Please!

Do you have wiiide tyres in the front? Wide front tyres can make the steering heavier and awful in any car.
