Looking for Camber Plate Suggestions for KW!

abirmaher · 04-20-2017, 03:00 PM

Looking to add camber plates to my setup any feedback on what route to take would be greatly appreciated.

Car is on 19 inch VMR wheels
M3/4 Lower Control Arms
Hotchkis Sway Bars
KW Plug and Play Coilovers

Thanks!

Any camber plate that fits the stock setup should work on the KW. Vorshlag, GC, Kmac just to name a few.

im running Dinan, and it does have a little bit of a clang noise while on bumpy roads, on smooth and track they sound and work fine.

Some NVH can be expected with all plates. You will get a lot more feedback from the road and sometimes hear the internal valving at work on some struts/dampers.

Since you will be using the plates on coilovers there is a good chance you will not get the noises other people experience with plates and OEM suspension.

abirmaher · 04-24-2017, 09:40 PM

Thanks for the input guys, I went with Dinan for now. Will report back.

Dylan86 · 04-29-2017, 01:05 PM

Did you check if the KW camber plates work with your coils ?

On a side note, how has your car behaved with the hotchkis sway bars ? I have a set going in with their links, just curious on your before/after opinion. Cheers,

It helped for sure. Recommended. And yeah but I've heard great things about the dinan ones so went with those.

Are camber plates only beneficial if you track?

My purpose is since I'm lowered and have the m3/4 lower control arms things are a little out of whack with camber so they are not able to get the two front wheels to the same camber and having more adjustability would be helpful

mikeyymonster · 04-29-2017, 02:27 PM

Cool, thanks for the info. Please report back once installed, i'm primarily concerned if you'll be getting any new noises.

How are the dinan camber plates!?

abirmaher · 06-14-2017, 09:59 AM

They?re pretty good. Offer plenty of adjustment though I Havnt played with them since initial setup. But overall I do feel a difference, positive.

The downfall is that you guys were right there?s definitely a lot of noise coming from them but I don?t mind too much. But it definitely sounds like something is loose of my right at times, but I know that?s just the plates.

That being said they can take at least some abuse, took the car up and down the tail of the dragon a few times white aggressively and then all the way up the blue ridge parkway not being soft on them and they handled it all with zero problems.

If the KW plates work with your KW coilovers you should go with them.

I run the KW plates. No noise.

Agree, plug and play. Also, almost all of KW stuff is rebuildable.
