Sorry I just put a silly reply up,my bad....look I'm no expert on the suspension matter and don't really understand why these adjustable race plates would ride better then the normal adj spring plates out there,maybe its the angle of the spring plate when stock and with the atomworks vs the competitors adj plates??being that atomworks have the dropped section designed into there own plates.....someone else on here would know better then me on this subject...I like that they use non rubber bush design though.....but jeez all that money though.....that's Porsche prices.....if all the hillclimb boys used stock plates etc I think it pretty much sums it up....

Hope I answered of somewhat degree..good luck

Hi binner. I don't even know the mtb forum. Not me. Those plates haven't been out that long and I can't find any feedback on them. I Google Porsche spring plates . Maybe they do work better than Vw ones with grommets. They want to for the price.

Have a look on the samba, performance engine forum, "how to correctly lower a vw" I think is the title, all the engineers have their say

Thanks 66brm. Good page. Lots of differences of opinion. I have to look at it on big screen to better understand the diagrams.
