    Just look at the surface are of a GC or Vorshlag camber plate compared to stock, its significantly less.

    The PO of my car had BC's on it with reinforcement plates and I had some pretty good cracks in the sturt towers, definitely not fun to have repaired.

    This was likely due to a combination of very stiff springs/potholes as the BC plates actually were about equal size of the OEM tophats.

    Although for all I know a PO just threw the plates in after seeing cracks, unfortunately I don't have the best idea of what happened to my car before I owned it.

    I would run plates, I guess I don't see the downside.

      I don't see why you'd regret running them. Little to no downside of installing them, can't hurt to add a factory designed reinforcement part when you will be increasing loads to that area known to fail.

        you should wear diapers just in case. There's no downside (protects your backside)

          After eating Taco Bell it definitely increases loads to areas known to fail
