    Good stuff. Glad you’re sorted.

    With the help of my German friend, we have established that the suspension is installed correctly, and indeed the front wheels move forward by about 20mm.

    Do you see where I’m coming from? Flip the passenger side over then rotate it to the driver’s side? That should move the wheel back but everything that is attached to the wishbone needs to be swapped over as well!

    Yes, these are the one's. We will try to flip it round tomorrow just for sake of it and see what it does. It's just so frustrating I'm using a well known set-up yet somehow manage to come by problems no-one has... well at least the electrics is done and she runs, and the interior should be finished relatively soon

    If someone running similar set-up could confirm to me that the s2 suspension moves the front wheel to the front in the arch and could hint to what they did about it, that would be great.

    Sorry to labour the point, so there is no way the wishbones can be fitted upside down? Are they interchangeable left to right? Do the front ones look like this one? 028C53C9-4DDC-4BD3-A149-18B708E67D07.jpeg

I realise these aren’t Albert’s but I can see how it just might be possible to fit it “ upside down” and that might change the centre of the wheel relative to the centre of the arch.

    the wheel is 20-25mm offset in the wheel arch to the front, Albert's wishbones are easily identifiable and all pick up points match the standard s2 whish bones..

    I'm just curious what are people doing to get the front wheels sitting in the centre of the arch.. offset subframe bushes? offset top mount? or are we doing something completely wrong.

    Hi peeps, need a bit of help.

    So the car has full s2 suspension set up with Alberts tubular lower wishbones and KW3 coilovers, but the front wheels are a bit offset to the front relatively to the arch centre. any thoughts?
