I picked up a set of the SPC arms from GruvenParts.com on sale and just installed them this weekend. This was after bending an OEM hard hitting a pot hole.

gruvenparts.com - Audi A4/S4/B6/B7 + Passat B5 Adjustable Front Upper Control Arms

What is the camber and toe supposed to be set to ? My shop has no clue how to work on Audi's, I want to make sure they set it up right.

 

Bentley says for "sports suspension" front:
-40' +/- 25' for camber (that's 0.67 +/- 0.42 degrees negative camber)
+10' +/- 2' for toe (0.17 +/- 0.03 degrees)
Rear:
-40' +/- 30' for camber (0.67 +/- 0.5 degrees negative camber)
overall toe: 8' +/- 5' (0.13 +/- 0.083 degrees)

 

good info, thanks. I want to set these for best tire wear, but also do some tracking days in it.

 

Ahhhhh they are adjustable.

Let us know how long they last. If they are strong I might be interested.

 

yep they look pretty sweet will let you know after a few tracks days. definitely will sort out the poor alignment on the front tires.

looks like they just lowered the pricing too, how nice, I paid about $100 more than there current pricing

Still worth it

 

so far so good, already have 5k miles on them and 2 track days

heck for this price even if they do wear out ill just throw another set in !

 

What tires are you guys running ?

 

Where I live we only get rain (on occasion) so I run high performance summer tires - Falken FK452. Been running them for years!

 

is that the replacement for the Falken Azinis ? I used to run them but they wore out pretty quick. Great handling tire though

 

Think they are different. The FK452 replaced the FK451 lol.
