These are a great product as I they give you lots of adjustability on camber and therefore scope to get lots of caster. It tends to be the case that the max camber will be 0 degrees with a standard setup. They also do well in my targa car putting up with plenty of punishment. After I put one set on I put the car back on the ground without changing anything and took a picture to show the difference in what camber is available. This car was 0 at max camber before changing.

These allowed me to go for the alignment specs I have been targetting, massively improving the handling. I highly recommend!

Great quality extended lower ball joint, These will add 2.2 degrees camber to your current setup. Something to keep in mind, is that they reduce the camber gain of the suspension through the wheels travel. For example, a stock lower balljoint, stock arms, set at 2.1 degrees @ rideheight of 320 arch to center (0.6 degrees camber @ full extension) will give a camber gain of 5.1 degrees of over the 120mm of wheel travel. With the extended ball joint, stock arms, set at 3.0 degrees this figure reduces to 4.2 over that same wheel travel. So the wheel has a straighter path into the arch. Caster seems wholey unfaffected. A downside of this, is that some brake kits will not clear the upper control arm, and so rack limiting spacers will be needed. Major benefit, is the ability to dial in more extreme setups easily and quickly. Hope this helps!
