FAQs

What is the main benefit of adjustable camber plates?

Adjustable camber plates allow you to precisely tune your vehicle's suspension geometry (camber and caster) for improved cornering grip, better tire wear, and enhanced handling characteristics, especially during performance driving like drifting or track use.

Do I need a professional alignment after installing these plates?

Yes, absolutely. After installing adjustable camber plates, a professional wheel alignment is essential to set the correct camber and caster angles for your specific driving needs and to ensure proper handling and tire wear.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The product comes with a one-year warranty covering any manufacturing defects.

Can these plates be used on a standard BMW E46?

Yes, they are designed for the BMW E46 3 Series (1998-2005) and are particularly beneficial for those seeking performance enhancements. They are not compatible with the BMW Compact models.

How do I adjust the camber and caster?

The plates feature adjustment bolts that allow you to modify the camber and caster angles independently. Consult the installation guide or a performance alignment specialist for the proper adjustment procedure and recommended settings.

Will these plates increase noise or vibration?

While some suspension modifications can introduce noise, these plates are designed with replaceable urethane bushings to minimize noise associated with bushings.

What is the adjustable timing mark for?

The adjustable timing mark is a feature that aids in setting precise alignment angles, allowing for more accurate adjustments during the alignment process.

Troubleshooting

Noisy suspension after installation

Ensure all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Verify the urethane bushings are properly seated and not damaged. Consult installation manual or professional for correct torque values.

Difficulty adjusting camber/caster

Ensure the adjustment bolts are not overtightened. Clean any debris from the adjustment mechanism. If threads are stripped or mechanism is damaged, contact the manufacturer.

Vehicle alignment is unstable

Confirm that all locking mechanisms for camber and caster adjustment are securely fastened after setting. Re-check alignment with a professional alignment machine.

Parts do not fit correctly

Double-check that your vehicle model and year are within the specified compatibility range. Ensure you are using the correct orientation during installation. Contact support if fitment issues persist.
