In need of alignment and so so setup
Hi,
I recently installed K-Sports under my Nx2000 and for the front it seems to work out without problem but the rears show room problems.
I've got 205/40/17 under the car and by setting the K-Sports in default settings, meaning that the wheel hub was matching the surface of the strut tower, the tires hit the spring.
So to make it driveable I had to adjust the rears to max. negative camber. Then I ordered wheelspacers 5mm, I believe those are the thinnest I can get and before they came in I already hitted the wheelwell once, it was showing on the tyre. I hitted the weld, not the wheelwell itself. It was so minor, but with already having max. negative camber, it seemed it won't fit.
So to lessen the negative camber, I've placed the wheelspacers (for the rear, fronts seem still to be fine) And guess what, I touched the wheelwell again but this time quite easily.
As for now, I'm looking for an alignment, but the problems are that should I do that with or without wheelspacers and without I risk the alignment shop tells me this can't be aligned and with the wheelspacers I can be sure it will hit the wheelwell.
Any thoughts on this? I'm looking for the cheap way, trying to avoid throwing away $69 for wheel alignment if I later find out I have to change the settings again.
Please advice, I also would consider DIY alignment solutions but I don't see how I can adjust the car and still read the wheelplate.
