😂 dude, I didn't design them, but they're installed correctly as-is.Originally posted by Tbonem3 View Post
Most certainly not. As installed, he can only loosen the 3 nuts and get caster adjustment (but it's not actually caster adjustment - it's supposed to be camber). That makes no sense. It really makes no sense when you ponder how he's supposed to adjust camber as they're installed presently. You can't even access the 4th cap bolt (hidden or do they only include 3 lol) so how are you going to loosen the assembly to adjust camber, if this installation is correct? Again, makes no sense.
Here are more photos of correct plate installation. Again, the inner slotted area is for caster - they always have a screw with allen key head and that action is front to back. Camber adjustment is side to side.

Yes, I used 3 bolts, no issues.

How do you adjust if a bolt or 2 are blocked? (See gc's pic above)DD: /// 2011.5 Jerez/bamboo E90 M3 · DCT · Slicktop · Instagram

That's absolutely ridiculous. Install them 90 degress turned and you can adjust camber easily like every other plate.DD: /// 2011.5 Jerez/bamboo E90 M3 · DCT · Slicktop · Instagram

Definitely not.Originally posted by fattycharged View Post
Same way you would if you're making changes on your plates, just an extra step

IDK what to tell you but a bunch of manufacturers make them that way when there is camber and caster adjustability. Maybe has something to do with that central mount, if you turned it 90* it would run into that inner mounting stud to the chassis before getting enough camber.Originally posted by Tbonem3 View PostThat's absolutely ridiculous.

In fact it is so common....
