Tiger Avon rear suspension
Any advice welcome.
I've put new tyre's on my Avon which are a bit wider than previous and I'm a bit concerned they will foul on the rear arches when I
take it on a track day soon.(car is not road legal at present)
I've wound up the collars on the struts so the springs are compressed to 215mm and I've turned the adjuster knob on the damper struts as
far as it will go in the + direction. I've not sat in it to check the gap between tyre and arch yet (plus there will be driver and passenger on
board most but not all the time) and sitting in the stationary car is obviously gonna be different to taking corner's at speed.
I've no idea whether what I've done is correct, I know corner weighting is probably the best option but any advice on a basically good set
up would be great.
Thanks
Ian

What size wheels and tyres do you have?
Ive got 13" pro race 1.2 with 205 tyres on the rear offset ET35 and I had to cut a few mm off the inside of the drives rear arch. I know others
who have made their rear arches wider.
