[s-cars] '92 springs & alignment

[Michael Bess]

I got the ’92 S4 springs installed on my ’95 S6 with Koni’s.  The ride
stiffened up where I hoped it would and the ride height was lowered about
¾”.  That’s the good news.

 

The issue is that now the driver’s side front camber is out (-1.6 degrees)
with the adjustment plate at the end of allowable travel.  Passenger side is
within spec at -1.1 degrees. 

 

Is the 1.6 going the give me excessive inner edge tire wear?  Is there an
easy fix (will elongating the camber slots give me enough space to bring
things into alignment)?  If not, does anyone have a set of stock plates to
perform the Igor modification on?  That way I could modify without laying my
car up and return or put into the group’s inventory another set of stock
plates.  Or even modify them, if someone is interested.
