hi chaps im running upgraded shocks and lowering springs on the front.. im wanting to add more camber as going for a wider wheel.. i know people will say go coilovers but on budget.. i seen camber plates that fit oem strut? are these any good if anyone had some experinces with them?

i use eibach/SPC adjustable top mounts on my koni's & custom springs,

not a cheap options but works for me, there's plenty of adjustable top mounts out there, it all comes down to budget really.

IIRC it's in the region og 1.5 - 2/2.5dg, been ages since i measured it.

Camber plates are illegal here on road cars.

There are two legal options in Germany (just incase you have issues with MOT).

Option 1: Install camber spring plates, those bring +/- 0.5 camber and usually come with a quality material certificate for MOT/TÜV and are legal, they would add around 12mm height to the front end.

Option 2: Install the OE BMW Offset/camber correcting strut mounts. They also bring +/- 0.5 camber but are a dealership/BMW part only and cost a crazy €150 each (so €300) but are 100% legal and would not raise the front end.

Here is what a local German company manufactures, the camber plates:

As i said, they come with a manufacturing and quality certificate for TV registration (basically making these legal) and fit on stock struts/mounts.
