Here you go..
Ace Cafe London
Ace Corner
North Circular Road
Stonebridge
London
NW10 7UD
Just incase you need the address.
IIRC, the regular Ace Cafe meets are the first Thurs. evening, every month.
If I can get the undertray resecured on Jabba, I'll put in a showing around 8PM.
I really want to go to this! But shouldnt really do ANY motorway driving until my wheel rubbing is sorted.
Sort it now then?
if i could, i would. the bloke whoes meant to be rolling my arches keeps fooking me about, and thats all i need. i can do the spacers myself.Quote:

not yet, thought it be easier to do it all at the same time when the wheels are off. turns out front ones arent rubbing, just the back ones.Quote:

5mm, theres already a set on there i believe, i need to roll arches before i can put them on or they will push the tyre into the arch lips. My car seems lower at the back than at the front for some reason.Quote:

And you're going to fit spacers?
no, they are a few mm away but they are rubbing n something on the inner, so need to fit spacers to sort that then roll the arches so the tyres dont catch the lip.Quote:

Yeah thats what im planning, take them out and cut the bits where there evidence of rubbage.Quote:

All you need is some strong snips, a jack and a screwdriver!
But i need to move the tyre further from the axle or whatever it is, the bloke in the garage said its not safe to drive at speeds with the tyres like they are, incase they get hot, catch on whatever they are rubbing on, then blow out.Quote:

What exactly is it rubbing on..
i think they are, they sound like it, i need to get wheel off to check the liner for rub marks. They are also dangerously close to some metal component on the inner.Quote:

6PM onwards, from what I could see. Unless the Abarth-specific part is earlier.
You're welcome :)Quote:
