Something along these lines...

http://www.automotion.com/productpag...+Camber+Plates

I've seen them work on M Coupes etc... and read that GT3 control arms etc... work on 997S - but this looks like an easy and less costly way to get addition camber.

My car will only hit the track maybe 3-4 times per year so I don't really want to go completely nuts on the track mods...

neijia is infamous around these parts
If your only going to the track 3 to 4 times a year, I don't believe this product would suit you very well. Daily driving is going to wear the tires out quick. They are adjustable from "hard street use to aggressive competition driving." Swapping them out for each track day might not be fun either.

Nah, just spend the $1200 or so for the real deal -- Porsche GT3 Cup control arms. I set mine up with a street / track setting that's right in the middle, so my 50/50 car use wears the tires pretty evenly.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I don't mind running a lot of camber on the street as this is not my daily.

My S2000 is running -1.7F -2.6R and the tire wear is pretty even.

The corners of the C2S are pretty much bald. :yikes:
