North Eastern Tyres and Exausts (NETE)
Silverlink Retail Park
Middle Engine Lane
Wallsend
Newcastle upon Tyne

or foxhunters tyres, whitley bay most tyre places will be able to do it.
failing that revolution have new alignment gear could be worth a look :shrug:

Foxhunters don't have a tracking machine at all. H2esy go to the one on the silverlink (NE Tyres and Exhausts) They will do the lot for you, tracking will cost about £20 but its all out laser alignment as for camber I think they will sort it on the tracking for you :)

Nah they just fit tyres and balance em and sell alloys. Cheaper than anyone else round mine for tyres though :D

Did not know that, their garage looks far to small for a tracking machine in there. Wonder if they use the classic mini garage across the road for it :D I hate that place, everytime I get tyres from foxhunters I go into that mini place looking at old 1389cc maxi engined mini's xD

the only place I could find the tracking and camber using laser stuff (coz mines lowered so cant get the clamps on or summit) was the KWIK FIT up near west gate road, newcastle. Cost me £100 after haggling.

you have to get a camber tool which tells you the camber of the wheel then you undo the 2 bolts holding the coilover to the hub and move thje top half back and forth till you get the camber you want. It wasn't too hard but i still need to get my tracking done lol
