Good for people who really need cambered shims for fitment issues...I would read Vans initial post in this thread about higher offset wheels + these camber shims.

Any pictures of your 9.5s--that is insane!

You might want to talk to somebody before putting that much camber for performance. You can do what you want, but even 3 degrees of camber on the front is borderline too much, if not already too much for autoxing. Plus, this modification isn't adjustable, so your set in a position after you install it. Optimal front camber for cars that race is usually around 2-3 negative depending on the tire, car, and track surface.

Doug,

PM SEan (MyBox) and tell him you want the same set-up as me. Sean came thru for me and was able t get what I had been looking for for over a year.

you are correct.. i've researched more since that post, however i've learned that people running 3degrees on sticky autoX tires have had very good results. i would install/remove the plates just for autoX.. i do about an hour of installs/removals for autoX anyway wht's another 20mins?

Well after these last few road trips and the extra weight of the finally finished sub enclosure, I think I am going to have to run negative camber on the rear and might do a little on front as well...

Brad what pillow mounts are ya runnin and how $$$ PM me some info please

I was really wanting to stick to HKS but haven't found any pillow mounts for my xB. If anyone has a part # for HKS let me know... I know Cusco and Tein has them but thinkin the Cusco's might be better anyone got the 411 on the pillow mounts for the xB?

Thanks in advance,
