Ride height question for VW based Speedster self-builders

@Lane Anderson lane before I forget. I’m in the process of installing a shoulder belt after your write off. 👍😎

Wise man.

I have a swing Axle Speedster and have adjustable beam front axle and I have the rear adjustable spring plates. This way fine tuning was easier. The thing about running swing axle cars low is the rear tires camber in at the top making your tires wear on the inside edge.

@Jimmy V. Very nice. I could not do it that low even using 45. I did camber a little to also stay away from the edge of the fender. Hope it stays this way when you move up to 16 inch rims 

Jimmy, what's your rear camber set at? I don't get appreciable inside wear.

I'm running about 3.5 degrees negative camber, but admittedly I have narrower tires than your widebody. I'm running 205/60/15 on my swing axle Spyder and I run 1/16" total toe-in. Perhaps you are toed out a tiny bit?

What are your tire sizes?

I run 205/50 -15 on the front and 225/50-15 on the rear. I don't have mine set low enough to get inside wear because of excessive negative camber. I was just mentioning that setting swing axle cars too low can create a lot of negative camber. I have mine set about 3 degrees negative camber and 1/16" toe in. My tires are wearing perfectly so far after 3500miles.

Glad to hear you're enjoying your setup, Jimmy. And great info for the next guy!
