    Spring perch location vs the tire also depends on your ride height and top hat choice, in addition to spacer vs no spacer. The spacers are almost a requirement to get a high enough ride height with the right amount of bump travel by the way.

    I run 9.5 ET35 with a 265 Hankook RS4 on track and had no issues with the following setups, both at 13.5" hub to fender ride height and with the 3dm spacers:

    - TMS Street camber plates, 400 lb Ohlins beehive spring
    - (current) TMS Street camber plates with 2.5" spring perch, 325 lb 2.5" / 7.5" length springs

    Thanks for this .

    Seems more “useable” solutions exist now for OHLINS RT vs few yes ago. Or guys just figured it out trial and error. Like Ian - [mention]Obioban [/mention] Followed his tribulations closely but think he moved on from it.

    Any others?

    The struts in the Ohlins BMS Mi30 kit for the E46 M3 were designed to work with the OEM top mount. When converting to aftermarket camber plates, the "stack height" of the camber plate is much thinner than the OEM mount. This strut spacer kit moves the strut up to accommodate for the thinner stack height of the camber p
