CK Motorsport on the ground floor of AMK autopoint for around 300 SGD

Espace for around 500 SGD.

Make sure the basics of vehicle masses, individual and overall pad levelling and planarity, unbound suspension, and post weighting sway bar adjustmets are in place . Beyond that there are 3 schools of thought on corner weighting, so best decide for yourself on which of them you think it best. Or try all at separate times and decide. It will vary a little depending on course type, but not by much on any decent car.

The details are a hassle, but necessary because being just a little off on any part of it can largely negate everything else that's been done. Tempting to rush through it and get it out of the way, but if steps are missed, there is no point. Know it well yourself and then watch the service provider do their thing and make suggestions if you want. It is your right to.

Re: recommendations for alignment and balancing

How often do you need to go for alignment? After every tyre rotation?

 

[jinooi]

Re: recommendations for alignment and balancing

after you do something to your suspension or wheels.

e.g. change suspension components, brake rotors, change in size of wheels, anything to do with the control arms or trailing arms, etc.

or in the worst case scenario, after mount kerb, or anything that might throw the wheels off alignment.

Yup changing suspension messes it up sometimes so need alignment.... but means i kiasu coz every 10,000km = servicing + tyre rotation + ALIGNMENT!!

Been told it's good but was wondering if it's really necessary....

Re: recommendations for alignment and balancing

you yourself know. do you run alignment a lot when you do it every 10K?

Hi Jinooi, brake rotors or rim changes alone don't require alignment. Only if there's a considerable ride height change is there a requirement. The ride height change might usually be done along with the rim change (going up on rim size and lowering the ride height at the same time), but the realignment has to do with with the lowering and not the rim or rotor change.

Re: recommendations for alignment and balancing

Guys, can I have Kenny's number? Btw, how much it is for allignment and balancing? Just upgraded my rims one size up. Do I need to do balancing or allignment is sufficient? Thanks in advance.
