Hey all,

I installed a set of BC coilovers (BR type) this week and then had it professionally aligned, etc. It's been lowered to 350mm all round.

Camber on the rears is -3 on the left and -5 on the right??!! Even with camber pins they're still gonna be way negative, and uneven? Has anyone experienced this before or know how to fix it? At the moment I'm thinking of raising it a bit.

Also, to be honest I'm really not happy with the BC's. On the softest setting they are still really hard but have a lot of bounce in them. So I've turned them up to around half way but they are still really bouncy. I'm not quite sure how best to explain it, but when you drive it feels like you're bouncing up and down really quickly. Just a really rough feel, but the road is smooth and straight, no holes, etc.

Any advice would be really appreciated!

bought them new, checked for leaks though and can't find any. could old/dead bushings be enough to put the camber off that much?
