    Front top strut plate/camber

    Hi guys i found that i have some wierd negative camber numbers up front, one is -0.3 degrees and the other one is -0.4 degrees, could this be my top plates are done or something else? Im debating between buying stock top plates or adjustable camber plates from ground control, the latter are quite more expensive than stock, whats your take on this?

    That sounds completely fine, being off 0.1 per side is pretty close, last time i check my Ix was like -2.0 per side being lowered. I believe factory is with in -1.5 or something like that.

      Those are good camber numbers. Mine is driver side -1.7 passenger -.05 and I can feel a difference when I'm driving.

            Those are good camber numbers. My car was hit on the front left that's why my numbers are off and my car is on stock springs, not lowered.

                  if they list it for a RWD E30 it's not going to fit an ix.
