I had the same problem with my 3dr. When you are pushing the tca's out to give it more camber, this makes the wheel move back because of the standard arb.
So the more camber you want the more the wheel will move back and will catch the kit.
I've had to spacer my arb to push wheels forward again.
This is making my car tram line so I think the only option is to return back to standard tca's and remove all spacers from my arb then buy some top mounts to adjust camber than way.
3drs are a night mare because of the kit.

this makes sense as to why you are having wheel centering problems reading this. your caster is being ruined with the wheel being pushed back.

i dont fully know what you have fitted to your car but it sounds like a waste of time on the front at least. your adding positive static camber but gaining negative caster which will reduce dynamic camber. probably best left stock or get adjustable top mounts

Cheers mate .. 6degree beam will make it handle better and use the full width of the tyre tread mate .. And gain plenty more grip.. So unless i go on track I don't need to alter the front ?

i can understand the rear to add grip for the power your running so you can put power down in straight line better. assuming your reducing positive camber on squat that is and not increasing it.
theres prob more experianced brains on here than me so wait for more input.

personally i dont think i would alter the front. i dont know what your standard camber would be but if you add positive camber and only use on the road it will just add to tyre wear on the inside. somebody else may say different but for me id say no.

Cheers Steve .. It's only a fast road car so may leave the front as It is .. As I've had no probs with it
