I thought I had been getting away with running my lowered stang without CC plates, but apparently not... I just noticed that the inside edge of my front tires have been wearing like crazy. If I don't do something my front tires are going to be ruined.
So I know I need c/c plates, but I have no idea which ones to go with. This car is my daily driver and sees 10-15k miles a year. Am I going to have signifigantly more noise, vibration or harshness with c/c plates using a spherical bearing versus ones with polyurethane bushings? How long do those bearings tend to last on street cars?
Who even makes a reasonably priced c/c plate with poly bushings... BBK maybe? The Hotchkis ones are way out of my budget. I need to stay under $180 but hopefully cheaper.
If c/c plates with spherical bearings would be fine for my application, then which ones should I go with? I know everyone loves the MM plates, but are they really worth the extra money, or are you just paying for the name? Is there something cheaper that will work just as good? The UPR steel plates are only $120... are they any good? Or Mac/Pro3i/Summit/etc for around $150 or so?
