cc plates?

[98COBRA281]

i think i need cc plates, my car is lowered, i have about a 2in wheel gap in the front, but my tires sit alot closer to the back of the fender, like 2 fingers in the back and 4 in the front

If you only have a 2" fender gap that means your car is lowered at least 1.5", so yes, everyone on here including I will tell you that cc plates are needed.

I tried to get mine aligned after lowering it 2" with the stock plates and I failed lol.

The alignment with the stock plates will only get you worn tires. Go ahead and invest in the plates.

will they make the tire sit in the center instead of towards the rear?

ive been looking around on ebay why are some 3 bolt and some 4 bolt i think i have 3 bolt any good brands to reccomend

I believe 4 bolts are required if you wish to install a strut tower brace.
Let me be the first to recommend maximum motorsports cc plates.

the maximum motorsports cc plates are a real good piece, I would recommend getting them. Easy to install to.

MM 4 bolt plates are the ONLY ones to consider. all the cheap plates and the steeda plates are total crap! i only recomend MM plates on all the cars i align. they cost a little more but you will get a MUCH better alignment with them

 

[98COBRA281]

i only have 3 bolt, they will still work?

 

[Superhereaux]

you drill the 4th hole yourself, yes they'll still work

I have BBK and they are very well built.

MM or nothing!!!

sounds like you need to actually be the one who uses the plates to align a car. i dont give a crap if the plates are nice and shiney, its all about how they work. the steeda plates are JUNK!!! MM is the BEST out there and the only plate that needs to be considered.

after you align a car with steeda plates and then a car with MM plates come back and let me know your opinion. i dont care if you come back with a hundered people that swear by steeda plates. i still will not use them or recomend them b/c they simply do not work half as well as MM.

and if you really want to know the steeda ones look like some cheap junk to me. if i wanted something pretty i would get the polished MM ones!

still looks like an abortion and no they do not have the best alignment rate and if they did why do they not back it up.

 

[SaleenGT2001]

the best alignment rate?!?! WTF is that???

lets take a poll on this. i'll start a thread just for you
