    I like the design of those control arms, no shims and a serviceable ball joint. I have BBS RIA011MGR front wheels 18 x 8.5 ET 48 and RA012MGR rear wheels 18 x 10 ET 40 on my 2010 Cayman S and no spacers and no rub. Hope the control arms workout well 💯👍!

      These look good, but why don't we like shims? They seem like they'd be a bit quicker and easier to use. No camber plates required - you know what angle change you'll make when you insert or remove one.

      Did your balljoint fail? You should be able to get them from any SPC dealer.

    How are these holding up? I’d like to go with Tarret or elephant engineering but I’ve had good luck with spc parts on my e36 m3.

      They are doing great. Changed my alignment last week and love how easy it is to add camber. Way better than the shims on my buddy’s gt3 arms.

    Bad design. As you increase negative camber, front tire is pushed into front wheel housing cover. Look at the other design that have holes to reposition front tension strut

      SPC also make an adjustable front fork (I have Torque Solution adjustable front forks) to adjust caster. The 2 hole design you mention is pretty flawed as you only have 2 options for caster which really limits your ability to adjust caster. The SPC arms do have the stock sized bushings so you can replace them with any of the aftermarket adjustable puck design caster bushings if you want to have real caster adjustment when using stock front forks. The trade off on those is of course a firmer ride because they are a metal bushing. My front forks were original with 112,000km and the bushings were done so it made sense to replace them as well.

      @@TheEddysGarage So you have to keep buying more and more and how many shops can properly adjust all this? The 2 hole design puck works for 98% of the cars. After installing 200+ with the 2 hole design, and racing many cars with it and winning PCA Championships, it seems a reasonable option.

      @@Viperbob911 I had to replace my 20 year old arms anyway and the SPC arms are almost half the price of any other arms here in Australia. If I get a newer and better Porsche I will look at the other design.
