Thanks. Yes to both. Corner balancing is somewhat challenging when trying to get the right stance too. May need to raise the ride height at tad and more camber. I got a little rub on the front drivers side when I did a fast sweeping right with little dip/bump mid turn. I adjusted the PPS10 from 5 - 7 and tried it again with the same rub. May try one more notch stiffer before adjusting the height and camber. Car is a dream

In 2 weeks my car will also be corner balanced etc..
I'm very curious what they will do with the ride height.

Thanks bud. Twice last night while watching hockey I took a peak in the garage to look at her; made me smile ear to ear.

At a minimum it looks like they should raise the rear a bit, there should be some measure of positive rake so that the rear sits higher. From your pics it looks about even height, or possibly the rear is slightly lower than the front.

Thanks. Actually the rear does sit a touch higher. Wouldn't more rake make it more likely to rub. I'm going to first adjust the suspension stiffer if that improves anything. If that doesnt work I may just need to raise it touch or a little more negative camber. If that doesn't work then may need to make some minor adjustments to the geometry to keep it this height. On a smooth twisty road not an issue just when I have some aggressive compression such on bump is there minor rub. We'll tinker with it and get it perfect. Sebring is bumpy track.

Did you roll/modify the wheel arches?
I've gained around 1cm per side and no rubbing at all.

Sorry, I was referring to Delanobe. Hopefully they got your rake set properly when they did the corner balancing.

No not yet. Today is my first day driving as setup. Rolling the fenders is a final option if we cant get the geometry right or have to raise it to the point where the look is gone. But for me, I have always been a guy to do mods that can be returned to stock. That said, if I can't get it the way I need it then roll away
