Anyone had experience with these? I have a order in just wanted to add these if they're any good. Price seems ok

http://www.minisport.com/mini-spare-par ... S0510.html

What has everyone else used ? do they sell them at the likes of karcraft etc? Minisport au has some for 125 + postage.

The ones I use are similar to those in Beanie's post ^. They only do Camber Adjustement and for the Toe Adjustment, I shim the bracket. I use these because the set up has a method of adjustment that cannot slip.

That style of bracket from Mini Sport (UK) does both adustments by the one means, so when you get say the toe right, you've then got to slacken it off again to get the camber, but opps, there goes the toe adjustment again! You'd get there, but damm fiddley.

And, all you need is a bit of a decent bump and the toe adjustement will be out again.

Oh, yeah, and the brackets I use are only about $36 pr....... and I think a buck or less for a shim......

The Minisport (UK) versions are OK. Bit fiddly but no real hassle - and once set they stay in adjustment.

Cheers, Ian

I have a set on my car that look like all of the above combined. Serrated edges so they bite in, but adjuster screws to make life easier.
:D
