ehm~~ the 2nd u tell looks like on wheel balancing ....this kind of balancing of rims is better than that using machine to doing balancing ,,,actually alignment n chamber can adjust by DIY ..if u got the aligment tool ...something like ruler ..i don know where got sell ..just saw on mag..some track day they all DIY doing this stuff....
eh~~ i don know much in alignment la ...
n chamber .....got to bcareful ..sometime u go to do alignment ...n they told u got to do the chamber ..n need to change a nut ...it cost u RM45 per pcs ...that 1 is cheat u 1 ....that nut if u know some 1 can get it ..just only cost u RM2 - 3 only ...cos last time my lecturer got told us this ...but after u changing that nut can adjust the chamber easily ...
n if downgrading to using 15inch wheel ..ur top speed will drop 1 ...n the grip will more lousy than 17inch ...but rims is suka hati 1 la ..can't force u to hving what i want rite ? :_: hehehehe
our lude chamber is not simple as small nut. Default one cant be adjust unless u change the chamber. normal car like proton, ford ( i know) can change using small nut to adjust chamber for better alighment. i'd change it on my ford cost rm25 each.
Our lude chamber size double double double size of normal chamber nut it cost around rm1xx each.
The best is factory one don need adjustable chamber, if really something on ur tyres, it would not due to chamber, it must be something wrong to ur rim, ur tyres, ur 'bottom' part.
Last time tyre shop persuade me to change the chamber, i resufe after i consult my mech man, of course den i spen some $$$ to adjust 'bottom' part using hydraudic kind of machine..since den to now no more problem.:regular_smile:
if u change to adjustable chamber, u need to spend more $$$$ every time when u alignment ur car. cos tyres shop sure will tell u the chamber not like normal car one small chamber nit they need more $$$ to help to to adjust it for well align.
