Hi all as above what would you ask the tyre centre to track to. Parallel or slight toe out?
Thanks

I think it depends on how firm your anti roll bar bushes are and how much movement you have, if they are soft then a slight amount of toe is set to allow the wheels to pull to parallel under load. If your anti roll bar bushes are pretty solid there's not so much movement and if you set for parallel it stays parallel.

Poly bushes mate

The standard car is supposed to have 3 degs out over the from axle. For a polybushed car i would go for 1-1.5 degs for the front axle.

I'm pretty sure std setting is 3mm toe out not 3 degrees

I'ld run 1mm toe out with poly bushes

It's suppose to be pretty much 0 on a std car.
That's how I've done mine and it drives fine.

Got it set to parallel today and drives much better now. Still looks too high though in my opinion so think I'll lower it by 30mm in the springtime

Why do some xr2s seem to sit higher than others on standard suspension?

the manual says to set anywhere from +1mm toe in to -6mm toe out but does suggest -2.5mm toe out for standard set ups. Dependant on what polybushes you have fitted i would set it to -1mm toe out or parallel.
