Beware of idiots
I hear you and understand. This is one of Fords biggest mistakes with this car. They build a track car, give you the recommended settings, but guess what? You can't set the camber to what you need. I installed my own plates. If you are not a mechanic, you may want to consider subbing that out to a qualified shop.Alignment was the way it left the factory to get a base line. I really want to leave this car in 100% original form and don't want to add camber plates if don't have to, but I am pretty sure I won't be able to get enough negative camber without them. I guess I can always take them off and go back stock down the road if need be. My tire budget will surely thank me if I do.
With all that said, cup 2's are expensive tires. If you are going to track on any kind of basis, it would be worth installing camber plates. I installed Steeda plates but regret not installing Vorshlag plates.
As for keeping the car 100% original, you can always reinstall the old plates back to factory if you ever decided to sell the car. I have all my original parts.
If you don't mind getting about half the life out of your cup 2's, then disregard everything I said. By the way, I read cup 2's are on sale at tire rack right now......something like 1300 a set (and that's a steal).
