Looking well on the new suspension & tyres there 
I wonder if the castor correction would fix the bowing of the springs as a side bonus?

Yes it will, but not much.. But i really feel the correction is needed, it doesnt track very well now.
The ET15 7x15 wheels is close to a perfect fit, as the tire wear pattern are pretty much bang in line vertically with the top fender edge on the side thats "worst". A panhard correction on both axles would make it perfekt.. Not sure if i bother to do something with it tho..

Since the jimny is so narrow and tall looking, with its high front window, i want it to stand as wide as possible.. ET-0 wouldnt do the trick for me, but ET-10 would be absolutly perfect on 235's..
Probably need to go max et 0 if you want to avoid cutting away some plastic.
