    Camber Plates- Help Me Decide

    I am about to drop some serious money (for me) into my 318is suspension. I have been working with flyingbrickperformance.com and they have been great, but I have one last decision to make. I need to decide between using "Street" camber plates, which use a factory center bearing / mount, or a "Street/Track" plate, wich uses a sperical bearing encased in urethane. BTW this car will be daily driven as well as see some AutoX, a few track events / driving schools per year, and plenty of fun Pacific Northwest backroads. Here is the setup I am going with:

    Koni adjustables
    IE Springs
    IE 22/19mm sway kit (front and rear)
    E30 M3 front CABs
    Street poly subframe bushings
    Poly TA bushings
    IE weld-on rear toe/camber adjustment kit
    stock diff mount
    new spring pads all around
    15X7.5 wheels, 225/50/15 tires

    Understandibly this will be a relitively hard ride, but I was originally leaning towards the "Street" plates so there would at least be some vibration isolation. The downside, I am told, is that I will have to replace the factory rubber section every year or so. Can anyone speak to just how much MORE road noise, etc I could be getting by going with the urathane- style camber plates? I appreciate any input, especially in the next day or so before I make the purchase.

    The IE street/track camber plates actually raise the front ride height by 3/8". The actual numbers for my 318is are with stage 3's and street/track camber plates are, 1 3/8" drop in front and 2" drop in the rear.http://s233.photobucket.com/albums/e...t=DSCN1157.jpg
    what you did to this car is like getting a supermodel naked and willing to do anything you please. now here you are faced with ths once in a lifetime opportunity and then you squander it by making her fuck you in the butt with a 24" strap on. you are a sad, silly little boy.
