Camber plates and ride height

I’ve got a pair of Whiteline camber bolts, mounted top, and can get about -1.1*, not more. What’s the right combination of bolts?

I would get the SPC bolts for the lower hole and put the stock lower bolts in the upper holes.

Another option is slotting the upper holes in the struts.

You won't have clearance for -2.5* on 9" +35 wheels without camber plates though, I maxed out around -2.4* with 17x8 +45, and you'll have 2mm less clearance.

Makes sense. So I should get about -2* on my setup. Still better than -1.1*-ish I have now, so I'll give it a try. Will report back after I try

Ground Control is another option for plates that won't add to ride height and will increase compression stroke.



I got mine in the member classifieds here and love them: they have a serviceable radial bearing, hold settings well, and have been quiet and rattle-free. The main bearings still move smoothly and have no play, after approximately five years of use between the original owner and myself.
