What are some good plates to look at? Is anyone using the GroundControl plates? Seems like those would be optimal since the design actually adds more suspension travel. Definitely don't want anything that raises ride height.
I have the GC camber plates. I haven't gotten close to the bumpstops in front. There's plenty of camber adjustment (at least -4.5 degrees with camber bolt adjustment at the strut). However, there's not much caster to be gained. IIRC, I only got about 0.5 degree more caster.

I also really like the Raceseng plates. They also do not take away compression travel or raise ride height compared to stock or other bottom-mounted camber plates. I believe they also provide a bit more caster than the GC plates.

I think you're still going to get more outside tire wear with -3.5 degrees of camber in front if you're on RE71R and on concrete.
