AE86 – New Shoes

Thought I would put some new shoes on the AE86 today.

Had abit of trouble though, As the Alignment isnt as I want it to be…  Castor is too far back so when I put the hayashi`s that were supposed to go on the front, the tyres had too much tread on them and hit the inner gaurd.

Fail! haha So what I did is, I measured the previous watanabe wheel that was on there that didnt have a problem and saw if the rear hayashi`s had enough tread worn down so it wouldnt hit the inner gaurd… Lucky for me it did 🙂 (It`ll do till it gets to NZ)

All it needs now is a little lowering and some adjustable arms and should be set. Might need a little gaurd flaring too… Cant wait for the end result. Need to give the wheels abit of polish too…
