    Got some H&R race springs for xmas. put them on my 2001 a4 1.8t Quattro tip avant about a week ago.

    i need to get the alinment done. i went to three places to get it done and everyone said that becasue my car is lower then stock they can't do alinment!
    (what??)

    on top of that i noticed yestarday that my wheels r starting to do this...



    i live in Los Angeles, anyone know a place that i can go and get this worked out.lol

    is it normal for that to happen to my wheels with these springs?

    thx

    They couldnt do it correct on my car either, and mine is only stock sport..As far as I know every a4 is like this, tell them to do what they can, that's good enough :)

    Its not easy finding a good alignment place with a good tech. Most of them have no clue what they're doing or how to use the machines. I've been to several before I found one tech that actually knew his stuff.

    Usually when you lower your car you will have more negative camber so the top of the wheel/tire will be tilted towards the inside.
    If it wasn't like that when you first installed the springs make sure all the bolts are tight.
