M2 ground control camber plate settings
Ordered some camber plates from GC. They have 3 or 4 fixed camber settings. Can someone tell me the camber at each setting. For example:
Setting 1=stock Setting 2=stock-x degrees Setting 3=stock-y degrees ..

I'm pretty sure GC plates have continuous adjustment... Also, have you asked GC for those specs?

They have fixed setting for the M2. Awaiting to hear back from them.

I have them. They are not fixed. Infinite adjustments within fixed range.

Looks terrific so far. A little over 1500 miles total (950 highway down/back, ~300 track miles).
They really look good. I'd've taken a picture, but there was nothing to see! As for the rear, around -1.6 or so. Stock as delivered, and just left it there with a tad of toe in. Running the stock staggered PS2s, the rears seemed to hold up fine. |

Does more negative camber change clearance between the tire and the strut? Or does the relationship stay the same? Right now I have just enough clearance on the inside on the stock alignment

Pretty sure it would not. That should only be affected by your wheel size and offset.

Nope. My max camber is currently limited by the stock spring to the inner fender well. I left a pinky finger's clearance. With 60mm springs, I could get even more from the plates if I wanted.

We installed GC plates on one of our M2's. Everything else was oem. We could get up to -4.5 degrees in the front. We set the front alignment to -3.0 degrees camber, zero toe and max caster. In the rear we ended up at -2.0 degrees camber and zero toe. Car was rock solid under heavy braking and tire wear was even inside to out on a set of Hoosier R7's (265 front 295 rear) on 19" Forgelines after 250 track miles at Road America.

I have GC plates installed but the most they're able to get is -2.2 deg. Am I or my shop missing something?
