    Top hat alternatives?

    I was previously using Coilovers on my car and camber plates with them. I’m now thinking of going back to stock since I don’t track the car at all and just want to use it for daily driving. Thinking about just going the good old sachs route but realized there’s no top hats available for our car. What are people using nowadays ? I really don’t want to buy a used pair due to unknown wear and tear. I don’t think I can use my camber plates with the stock suspension?

    Looks like genuine is still available but maybe not the OEM corteco's, at least at ECS.
    Genuine is over $300 per side, wow. Then there is the "HT" brand available as well. But again that was just a quick search on ECS so who knows, but FCP shows genuine available as well.

      Used should be fine, not an item that wear out that much vs most suspension parts IMO

        GC street camber plates can be used with stock style springs and are not solid mount. I've been running them on a few of my cars, perfect OE solution to get a better alignment with no noticeable increase in NVH. Plus much cheaper than the stock hats (yikes!)

        Just saw there's also a 'lowering' version now..

          Cool to see them rework the plate for thinner stack. Wish they made it for E90, just bought the regular street plate. Still nice.

          I would def go with these for e46, or TMS.
