Anyone know of a set of inexpensive camber plates? All I need is a basic set... nothing fancy. It doesn't matter if they add height.
I used to have a set bookmarked but with the twins, I don't have the time or memory to find them...

Are you on M3forum? Some pop up there fairly often. That’s where I sourced my TCKline plates for what I think was a good price.
I swear there was a guy selling a complete Koni Yellow w/ springs and hats set on the Greenville/Spartanburg Craigslist, but I can’t find the link anymore. You could sell the dampers and springs and probably come out pretty well.

Thanks guys. Vas, It looks like those are for a smaller inner diameter spring.... 2.25"

I looked at those recently and thought -2.5 to -3.0 degrees was too much for a daily driver.
Unfortunately the next step up in terms of adjustability is at least twice the cost. :(
What is the factory camber/caster setting for our cars?
I heard you can pick up a bit of negative camber by punching out the locating tab in the upper strut mount. I did it and was able to slide the assembly in 1/16" or so. Not sure how many degrees of camber it's good for though.

I'm trying to get mine back to stock. I don't see myself running any track events in the near future. I'm having some handling issues and I'm hoping that once I get the front and rear camber back to stock it will either fix it or eliminate the alignment as the issue...
