Camber plates

I'm installing these camber plates with the Öhlins R&T kit:

Yeah, on track the tire wear on the outer shoulders is mean with stock camber.


We still have to do wheel alignment (on monday) then I'll know more on what the range of possible camber are with these :-D

The camber plates I got are made in Sweden so maybe not for you in the US (shipping and so on?). But for anyone within the EU it might be a thing?

I recommend camber plates from Ground Control or waiting for the units from Vorshlag.

So we did the wheel aligment today. No problem setting front camber to 3 degrees which is what I wanted. There's a lot of room dialing in more. I didn't try out max but I'd guess in the neighborhood of 4 degrees.

In the rear (all stock) max what was possible seemed to be just over 2 degrees. We got max 2.0 on one side and 2,2 on the other.

For me 3 degrees in the front and 2 degrees at the rear is just fine.

Question.

I have watched the guys multiple times align my cars and have noticed just torquing the bolts down can throw the numbers off and requires a bit of fiddling.

When using the plates and adjusting the settings for track day, autocross, etc and then back to street without an alignment rack. Will the alignment be off a significant amount?

Not answering your question but.... I don't change the settings between road and track. They are currently at 3 degrees and stay there.

Possibly some slight more tire noise but no clunking or anything at all.

F2x and F87 plates are the same.

I think Dinan ran into some issues and have recalled all the plates. You can probably search for that thread.

Agree on that, the Millway M2 plates I have on my car are the same as their F2x plates.

HP Autosport Do you know if the actual coilovers for the M2 and m235 are interchangeable?

Thank you.

No, that is a negative. M2 and M3/4 are, however.
