Also, i have noticed on the STANCE website that there is front camber adjustment on these... does it apply?

I know this might not be in the right section but how do they feel? Have you had any experience with any other models?

From what i heard from a distributor, its made in Japan. It only comes with camberplates if the suspension design of the car is a McPherson strut design. Our GS uses double wishbone so it does not have camber plates.

oh and it rides smooth like stock almost and very comfortable.

Hello,

Did you happen to see anything on the packaging on where it is made?

Thank you

it only says Stance Performance Suspension Systems on the box at each face and the make/model for the car.
apparently, they are made in japan but their USA distributor is in Illinois
