Anyone know what spring size an Ohlins R+T is for a camber plate order?

Understood. So, just order the plates, make and mark a template, and then drill holes accordingly, right?

Hi Fillipo, I know this is from and old thread, so I do hope you see this. I've been communicating with Barry at 3DM Suspension, and he said "Unfortunately the camber plates Vorshlag offers do not fit your Z4. The hole pattern in the shock tower is different. To make them fit on Filippos car we had to drill new holes. If you are up to doing this then you need the E82/E9X camber plates"

I told him I've mirrored your suspension build and asked if he has a template from when he drilled holes for your camber plates. He said "I'd have to try to dig up the old info, I've only ever done this on Filippos car. He might have pictures of what we did back in the day. I'll ask him.", so be on the lookout for some communication from Barry.

Thanks for all you do and have done to help make my 35is the best it can be!!!!

Are there not camber plates that fit the E89 out of the box?

There are ... but they are not as good, which is why we did not go with GC.

And yes Brian, to your post ... it's that straightforward. when you make your template, just fit it on the camber plate posts. Adjust your template as necessary until it lines up well. Then print and orient on the car. Use a punch to set center of the holes, then drill. You can chamfer the holes if you wish, then some factory touchup paint and you are good to go.
