Thanks for all the replies guys

took it to a local garage and they did it for 30 quid. Much better then it was, in that I can now just about do 35 without coming off the road

got really bad death wobble! Not sure why though

who can I get to balance them? The place I took it to for tracking said 31" tyres won't fit in most tyre balancers. Should I take them to a lorry depot? Cheers

4 wheel alinement is so the stearing wheel is set straight

you can get front and rear wheel tracking done seperate

How do you track the back wheels on a jimny then ?
