[s-cars] Eibach/Bilstein and Camber - What's *the* Solution?

[Gabriel Caldwell]

ECS camber plates.  Some people can get away with slotting some can't.
My alignment came to within factory specs with slotted mounts.

All Suspension Heads:

 

Patient is a 95.5 S6 with Eibach/Bilstein set up for over 2 years now.
In
about 12K miles of driving the inside edges of the tires was showing
metal.
I am currently at a -1.3 camber on the fronts.  I have further slotted
the
upper strut mounts and maybe have 2 or 3mm more before the mount hits
the
metal lip.  Russ Sutherlin was most gracious and provided me with is
determination that the Igor offset of 4mm would change my camber by
0.267
degrees.  That however would negate the additional camber I would gain
by
further slotting the upper strut mount.  My last set of tires cost @
$600
with mounting and balancing.

 

Short of going back to stock suspension (ain't happening), what's a guy
to
do to gain around 0.8 degrees of camber?  After market camber plates are
most certainly a consideration if'n the will get me where I want to be.

 

Regards,

 

Mark
