Max Front Negative Camber

M2guru · 05-25-2020, 08:49 PM

Hey all! I have an 18 with stock suspension and Vorschlag camber plates. Wondering what the max negative front camber is with these and if it's dependent on the springs. It's been a little since my last alignment (1 year and 10,000 miles), but at the time I recall not being able to get less than the -2.7ish I have now. Anybody with -3.0 or more with Vorschlag plates and stock springs? Wondering if I could get more negative with non-stock springs - it seems as if there isn't much more room on the plates to get less than what I have. Thanks in advance!

I think it depends on the springs/suspension you have.

When I had the Dinan HAS installed, at some point I was running -3.1

I run -3.2 with Vorshlag, stock struts, Dinan HAS. Works well.

The manufacturer got close to 4 degrees on coilovers. I ran 2.8 on Dinan springs, still had at least 0.5 available but checking my tire temps the 2.8 seemed optimal.

i would remain around 2.5 for street usage

I actually have mine set and marked at 1.85 for street and just bump them to 2.85 for the track.

I think I was running -3.5 front with the Dinan HAS.

I didn't pay to much attention on this because for street i keep +0.10 toe out and for track -0.5 toe in
