Camber Plates

Hey guys got a question looking to pull the trigger on the Bilstein Damptronic B16 EDC curious which type of camber plates I need? I want to go with Ground Control but which setup is required? Also I'm adding Dinan monoball lower control bushings anything else I should change while I am in there?

Voorslag is the other to consider.

I got Vorshlag, works well with the B16D. Talk to Jason at Vorshlag to be sure to get the right ones.

I have owned three different camber plates---Vorshlag, Ground Control street plates, Ground Control race plates.

My favorite is the Vorshlag. They put a huge spherical bearing in their plate that can handle a lot of force. When I researched this years ago, I recall Vorshlag saying their spherical bearing could handle 7500lbs versus the competition bearing that could take 4500lbs. Given the weight of these cars and pulling north of 1.5G's in a turn, the 7500lbs capacity was attractive to me.

The GC race plates (on my JRZ) started to make a creaking noise after 6 months. Since I replaced the GC plates with the Vorshlag plates, I have had several years of trouble-free performance on track. Can't ask for more than that.
