Thanks Smokin,

The 1st link is for atom 2, I wonder if the set up can be used for my atom 3?
The rest of the links, I can't see..... "You are not authorised to read this forum"
I guessed its only for paid members?

For Atom 3 - lifted from one of those threads:

CAMBER
front FACTORY RECOMMENDATION -30'
rear FACTORY RECOMMENDATION -45'

TOE (out) - front FACTORY RECOMMENDATION TOTAL TOE 2mm OUT (= -18' on a 15 inch wheel)

TOE (in) - rear FACTORY RECOMMENDATION TOTAL TOE 3mm IN (=. 25' on a 16 inch wheel)

Not sure why they're inaccessible for you - possibly members only but I'm not admin so can't tell

By the way, I forgot to ask.
Do I need to remove my mudguard and stay bracket when aligning the wheels?
They need to attach the aligning unit to each wheels.

It may depend on the type of kit they use. I didn't need to remove them when I had mine done but that may not be the case for all systems

FWIW, I believe they need the suspension 'loaded' to check / set alignment, so I'd be surprised if they'd want to jack up the car and take the wheels off.

I am constantly surprised though, so don't take my word for it...
