I know this may have been answered a million times on here but please be patient with me. I would like to install a set of BMR SP080 springs on my 2018 GT. Will I need caster/camber plates or camber bolts to get it to align correctly after the install? Thanks

You won't NEED them. Your car will just have some inherent amount of negative camber going forward.

I would suggest getting the camber bolts. It'll get you back to factory specs. The rear will have enough adjustment from the factory, so no other parts are needed

I was told that I didn't need them when I installed mine but I ended up buying the Steeda plates just because. Again, you don't really need them.

Just get the camber bolts, and you will be able to get the camber back to factory spec. Cheap enough investment to save some expensive tires.

We strongly recommend to install the 555-8139 Steeda Adjustable Camber plates at the same time. We will only do lowering spring installs when the camber plates are also purchased.

From the factory, the OE components are designed without any camber adjustment for alignment purposes. The factory strut mounts also utilize a bushing style mount resulting in excessive bending stress on your dampers, steering system bind, and may even cause pre-mature failure.

With the addition of these camber plates you will be able to dial in precise front suspension camber for each front toe adjustments resulting in a more balanced and predictable vehicle on the street or track.

You will notice improved overall handling capabilities, elimination of understeer and increase in your Mustang's turn-in response. In testing, we have seen maximum lateral acceleration increase by .11 G's post-installation of our Steeda S550 Mustang Camber Plates.
