Tools needed to adjust Ground Control Street camber plates?

[GaryS]

Hello. My installer ordered Ground Control Street camber plates for me. He will set them up like this (recommended by Vorshlag) so I can adjust them for street and track:

When you get the car aligned after installing Vorshlag (or anyone's) camber plates on your 1 series, ask the alignment tech to max the camber to negative and set the total front toe out to about +1/8th, which helps turn-in. Then have them slide the camber to full positive (about a 2 degree change on these cars) and see what the toe ends up at. Usually this will be 0 toe to about -1/16th toe in, which is perfect for street use.

When you setup your initial street setting this way (as with most BMWs) you can just quickly adjust camber trackside and it moves the toe to the proper setting. Takes ~30 seconds per side - jack up one corner, loosen the three M8 nuts on the top, slide the wheel inboard to max negative camber, tighten the 3 nuts again, lower the car, then repeat on the other side.

I don't know whether Ground Control Street camber plates also use M8 nuts - kind of doubt it. Does anyone know what bolts Ground Control does use so I can make sure I have the tools I'll need to get ready for my next event?

They should be 13mm, same as stock?

^^ Thanks! Reading about M8 which I've never heard of before had me worried.

13mm wrench is correct. M8 is the bolt size (Metric, 8mm).
