What rear mount do you use or recommend
So I was looking at the Turner Motorsport page and they have three rear mounts. They have three mounts and don't know if by choosing high performance will that be ok for a convertible or add to noise stiffness etc.
Comments please.sigpic

Hi,
I have a set of H&R sport springs (cabrio spec) and Bilstein sport shocks. I was just wondering if you guys with this setup have had camber related tire problems. So the short version is Do I need to install some camber plates to correct camber for the lowered ride height? Thanks any input is appreciated..

Some updated pics of my suspension (H&R sport cabrio-specific springs, Koni adjustables, no spring pads) versus a gutted sedan on H&R Race with spring pads installed. I apologize for the blackberry pics, but you get the idea. Tires are 205/55/15 on 15x7, ET13 wheels.

i hope this helps! ;)
