I've got the H&R springs on mine, there was no trouble at all with the alignment. I got the fronts set and then got them all laser aligned at another garage as a check.

I'll have to check to see how my tyres are wearing though...

i had my mk4 lowered on some springs ages ago from the Powerzone (nr Burnley)

they sold me some s**t excuse like that

I eventually just drove myself to Thistlethwaites in Bolton who just realigned everything while I waited.

I'm not really a fan of Powerzone. I dont know alot about cars, I'm no mechanic like - and they took the p*** of my lack of knowledge when selling me their excuses me thinks.

Now if they want a website or some print materials, I'll hook them up for 3 times the going rate and smile while telling them they're getting a good deal.
