If it's a machined piece I think you're ok as long as your hole is no less than half its diameter away from the edge of the piece. That's a rule of thumb I hear alot.

I always thought it was installed the other way..Making the hole look like ( ) rather than [ ]

how so?

you will see when u install them that there really isnt any other way of installing them.

the inside of those outter clamping brackets will have the width to fit in and replace the original oem offset round disc. its hard to describe but it fits in like a lego piece. once u place it over the oem camber bolt ( ) hole, u will see that u need to knotch out a bit off each side of the stock oem camber bolt ( ) hole to match the spc clamp bracket.

My camber is pulled in about -1.2 degree if i remember, i can pull it in more, but this matches the other side exactly for camber and toe adjustment. best comprimise for ridability and longevity of the tires.
