Slowjack Neutral Newbie July 14, 2003 Share July 14, 2003 (edited) Hi, need advice and confirmation from bros n sis. I noticed that the back wheels are slanted outwards at an angle if viewed form the back. Tried peeping under the car n noticed that the back suspensions setup are also mounted slightly slanted at an angle. is this normal? At first I tot that my JRD rims were the culprits, tried rotation(interchanged back to front) but still the same. Went ard to observe other Nissans, they are having the same look too though not that obvious. the back left wheel look more slanted than the back right one. anyway already did my high speed rotation and alignment, but steering still feel awkwardly light and slight vibration at a low speed of 110km/h, car still drifts to the left. steering also feels a bit jerky during turns and drifts. it is causing unwanted anxiety. wat seems to be the problem here? do i need to redo my alignment and balancing or swap tyres left to right? FYI i'm driving a nissan ss with 195/55 15" wheels wrapped wif kumho 712, recently i had hotbits strut bars installed. could this be a factor? any advice or comments?

Saaber Neutral Newbie July 14, 2003 Share July 14, 2003 could be the uneven weight distribution that is causing the slightly more negative camber at one side.......if not go to the alignment guys and ask them to check for you.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
