Ignore last PM, cool stuff Uwe. I understand.
Anybody else out there these are top notch gear,
laser cut (?) so a better finish than above.
Will work OK with offset mounts Uwe?

what do you mean by Laser Cut?? The mounts are laser cut.
You won't need offset mounts, because you are the proud owner of adjustable mounts.
I won't get any more negative than what you can do with the centre mount and the plates. The spring will rub insed the strut tower. It's already close now. Originally I had the mounts designed to go with 2.5inch springs.
The picture of the mount above are from the prototype which was all cut free hand

They look good. What's the deal with these? Are these your own creation Uwe? Can they go to full offset with standard struts or does it need 2.5" spring coilovers? Would you share the designs?

If everything seems under control, then you're just not going fast enough....

I am running them with the stock springs/strut assembly sinced last year before we went to the Ring. In Oulton park we measured about 2.6deg camber with Dawies digital gauge on full offset. I believe this is as much as you can get without the spring rubbing on the sheetmetal.
I am really really busy at the moment, but plan to finish some more mounts after Easter.
Instructions will be done ready for the weekend.
