If I can get 10 orders (which it looks like we have) - that would be enough to get me started. I will post a group buy this weekend once I get my color palette for powdercoating posted online. These will be marketed as a PRT design (pole120), with an honorable mention going out to Thinkmoto . Tentative pricing is set at (includes shipping): For the US: Bare Machined: $40 Powdercoated Black: $50 Powdercoated Color of Choice (Dozens of colors to choose from): $55 For the Canucks: Bare Machined: $50 Powdercoated Black: $60 Powdercoated Color of Choice (Dozens of colors to choose from): $65 I will also knock off $5 for orders of 2 or more. At this time, I am pretty sure that I will be going ahead with this. If so, it will be up and running by Sunday at the latest and I will place the order for the plates at the time. Lead time on these will be 3-4 weeks until I have them all in my hand and ready to ship. I will ship immediately upon receiving.

I made the OD the same as the stock camber kit plates. No difference. I even measured the depth of the groove in the rubber piece so I knew how far in to cut the offset. trust me no difference 06 GMC Sierra 2500HD Dmax/ally 06 Pontiac G6 GT 05 CRF250R FOR SALE 06 KX65 with riding gear $2700 obo

They fit great with the Koni sport kit, although the thread engagement is not exactly perfect. Since the nuts are quite tall, they will work fine for this application. Note those are the rubber pieces from the base vehicle and not from the camber kit. Craig 1999 SVT Contour #1889 2001 SVT Cobra Conv. #252 1968 Torino GT Fastback 1969 Camaro RS/SS

My tires are wearing way too fast after the Koni install. I wish I would have known about these kits before hand Is this setup in the GB yet? I want in!

Where can i get some of those rubbers coz the ones that come with the kit dont fit nearly as good as yours ST24 Mondeo, 19's, Koni/GC coilovers, Morrette headlights, bespoke interior etc etc
