So since 2003 I ownded and still own a Triple Black 97 GT CVT, i did almost everything to it but the power adder and internal components to the motor ( which are coming soon ) however i never bought the caster/camber plates and for the last 10 years i been going trough set of tires where they get used up only on the inside... ( throwing money away )

Running 255/40/17 front and 275/40/17 rear.

Problem is i wasted 4 sets of tires if not more in the last 5 years... where the pre-maturley would be used in the inner area.

I think becuase my car is slanted / \ < lol

However my question is what is a cheap and good option to go with? I love MAXIMUM MOTOR SPORTS but they are pricey..

Any help would be appreciated...

First off what is CVT?

That's bugging me to no end now lol

Search ebay and other forums. You can usually find a nice set of C/C plates used for cheap. I think I paid about $75 for my Steeda ones used.

Glenn

what about using camber bolts for the low low price of 30 bucks or less??

Depending on how much it is lowered, those might not get it into spec.

I would check for a used set. I have maximum motorsports on my 98 cobra. They might sound pricey, but I bet those 2 front tires have cost you more

Convertible = CVT Coupe = CP

For sure buddy, 1K wasted in total could of been only 1 set vs 4 so far...

Thank you I thought for a second it was like the navy seals of SVT

Glenn

how much of a drop are you running Stang 13?

conv_stang

I'd say close to 1.5" to 2 " if he's getting tire wear that bad.
I had to have some serious adjustment for mine

GBStang13

Per FRPP it should be 1" all 4 corners.

However i think it might be lower. However the 255s do seem to war out a little more than normal...

Anyhow thanks for helping out guys. Yeah i need a good set not trying to find them for cheap.

Are all the other components straight? A 1" drop shouldn't throw it off that much to where it's eating its tires

GBStang13

Yes sir... I can take a pic... I mean this afcourse after spirited driving and track ( course ) not the strip

conv_stang

Oh I believe you...but these cars do plow the road

Glenn

make sure you tell the alignment shop you have them and exactly what you want your camber set at. Before you drive away from the shop look at how your tires are leaning or not of course you can stand them up yourself ....I did on mine

Does it sit crooked? Or is it just the camera?

GBStang13

Camera.. LOL ups sorry phone cam

It sits straight. It does not pull steering wheel is perfectly aligned. I did alignment they clearly stated that factory casters dont go any further.

conv_stang

I figured it was the camera lol but had to ask.
