For those with Camber Plates and KW V3s
What is the spring inner diameter for them? I wanna order some ground control camber plates and thrust sheets (the popping noise is so annoying).
Thanks! |

Basically they make a sound whenever cutting the wheels at parking speeds. |

It seems improbable, but there you go. is it too late to buy MPS instead? There the top mounts are the same, while the lower end of the spring fits in a rubber cup that rests on the plastic spring perch. Which is the same as the one on the KW V3 bar the colour. HTH.

Either you keep them clean constantly (every 3-4 days you clean em) or you get thrust sheets. It's easier for me to just get the thrust sheets. 60mm is the inner diameter for anyone wondering. I'm thinking I'll just grab GC camber plates and do that at the same time lol. |

That thread that was linked, the OP stated that the thrust sheets didn't really work and the noise was related to spring bind hence why he installed the plastic spring isolators.
If you are set on thrust washers have a look into torrington/needle bearing washers or swift option https://www.swiftsprings.com/products/misc/ Example

I'm gonna be installing v3s (slightly used second hand) in conjunction with millway plates with the "street" PU inner portion. You can also swap in the typical uniball inner if you want more stiffness.
Not sure how the noise will be compared to stock or uniball top-hats so we'll see.. https://burkhart-engineering.com/en/...ion-m3-m4-f8x/ |

If search a little u will find positive reviews noise wise on the street version. Keep in mind that the street version cannot achieve as much camber as the spherical one.

Installed V3s and Millway streets yesterday. Can't believe how composed the suspension is compared to stock.
Different brand Coilovers and plates were much more noisy on the E46 (powerflex bushings may have contributed, ha). After two test drives I'm getting no clunking or additional noise from the camber plates. |
