Ohlins installed and I'm putting some new tyres on my NC.
While they all have the same tread, I'd like to have a look at the corner weighting.
Anyone familiar with someone in Sydney who has the gear and will do a decent job.

Re: Corner weighting
Chris has a set of scales but he's at Orimbah and tied up with High Country Targa for a while.
I'm on the que.
East Coast Suspension at Taren Point do it also. Wasn't cheap. From memory around $400 18 months ago when I enquired.

you guys do great work! you were recommended to me 30 years ago. You bent/adjusted some bits on my Subaru many years ago to fix a tyre wear problem and I never had the problem again.

Re: Corner weighting
Straight up corner weight is $264.
Obviously if you need an alignment as well this is extra.
