QUOTE(MR_alien @ May 4 2009, 11:39 AM) wanna ask u....what is needed to do alignment except for the machine? do u need spring? cuz i ask 1 shop...they told me the spring haven't arrive wa......lol Possibly to fix your over-spec negative camber in the rear axle, you'd need (hopefully) shim plates to reset back the camber angle. Ask a good mechanic to inspect the rear axle assembly and how the wheels pivot. But AFAIK, Proton introduced the negative camber in the Saga is to reduce the onset of snap-oversteer ( a problem with the old saga and it's torsion tube axle). But if lopsided, definitely an issue

aha..wiki
Camber angle alters the handling qualities of a particular suspension design; in particular, negative camber improves grip when cornering. This is because it places the tire at a more optimal angle to the road, transmitting the forces through the vertical plane of the tire, rather than through a shear force across it. Another reason for negative camber is that a rubber tire tends to roll on itself while cornering. If the tire had zero camber, the inside edge of the contact patch would begin to lift off of the ground, thereby reducing the area of the contact patch. By applying negative camber, this effect is reduced, thereby maximizing the contact patch area. Note that this is only true for the outside tire during the turn; the inside tire would benefit most from positive camber.

Which is a detailed explanation on why Proton introduced negative camber on the rear axle. But nice to know some do bother to read up

Depends on mileage and which shops u go  so u need to top up based on price of new rim+tyre sets minus the old rim This post has been edited by xshiro: May 4 2009, 06:59 PM

about the alignment, need to do if change sport rims or sport springs. Have to buy alignment skru, can ask from the alignment shop. if u rajin, can buy from lelong.com, RM12 only.

fuzzywuzzy they dun change, they spray.spray shops can do that for u, agong speaks bisness.
smokey get a harder spring or a 50 tyre..55 is giving u a reliable hit below the mudguard.
