Default Tarett Engineering Camber Plates for the 924/944/968 Crowd

Does anyone have any experience with these for the 924/944/968? I was thinking of pairing them up with my Bilstein's and was looking for a review on them on our cars. Seems the 911 guys like them.

I like how they come with the hats, not sure if some of the others out there come with them in their kits.

I don't like that they raise the ride height, which is a concern with your setup.

I have the Racer's Edge camber plates. I have been very happy with them, except I would have liked a bit more camber adjustment.

+1 on the ride height.

I have the Racer's Edge and like them. How much camber are you trying to get? Between the plates and what you have at the spindle, you can't be running out of camber.....

Well, my problem is my car is dual purpose. I drive it to work, and then on the weekends I have fun. So I like to have zero camber for the street. Then for the track I move the camber to full negative (adjusting the toe in the process). This gives me about 2.5 degrees of negative camber. I could use a bit more at the track. Maybe 3.5. I suppose I could always run -1 for the street, which would give me the -3.5 at the track, but I don't want to be buying tires all the time.

yes, but my thinking is if I run a 9" spring it will make up the difference. If I use the top mount, the car will sit lower. Am I correct? I don't want my car too low in the front. Although, I don't want the car to have limited travel. Do the A-arm angle's come in to play with the RE camber plates like the Kokeln's?

Also, do the RE camber plates come with the spring hat?

Look like the same design as the ground control and lindsey units.
