So here are my impressions:

First of all I wanted/needed a setup that fits stock sized springs. These do.

Also, I absolutely want to retain a quiet and comfy ride. Those plates don't use a spherical "race" bearing, and you also reuse the stock rubber spring pad. GC assured me the plates are quiet and they are.

Added bonus, from what I can tell (someone correct me if I'm wrong) the bearing insert is oem which means it's cheap/easy to replace if they ever go bad.

I did have an issue however, one stud broke as I was tightening it. It wasn't even tight yet, it just snapped. I called GC and they sent replacement parts right away. Great customer service.

I might be going off topic by now but GC picks up the phone every time. I couldn't get someone to pick up at TC Kline if my life depended on it.

Anyways, very happy with my GC plates so far.

thx for the info. this would help me make my decision on the camber plates
