    Coilover Camber Adjustment Plate Question?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    For the B8.5 should I adjust the upper camber plate if I am dropping 1 to 1.5 inches? I don't have adjustable control arms, so wanted to know will adjusting the coilover mounts help me out any? I don't want to destroy my tires. Currently I am replacing HR Sport Springs, so I will not go any lower than these else I would run the risk of rubbing.

    Thanks,
    Greazy

    The B8/B8.5 platform utilizes a multilink suspension system, meaning that it utilizes four control arms rather than McPherson strut suspension systems that typically utilize one or two lower control arms and a camber plate/strut mount. The B8/8.5 platform does not have a camber plate.

    For this reason, to adjust the camber on your vehicle, you will need to upgrade your upper control arms to ones that are adjustable if you'd like to change your camber settings.

    To increase camber, we'd recommend our Track Spec: https://www.034motorsport.com/034mot...s5-q5-sq5.html

    And to remove camber to return back to a factory spec, we'd recommend Camber Correcting: https://www.034motorsport.com/034mot...s5-q5-sq5.html
