BMR Cradle Braces
Has anyone done this and tracked their car before and after?

I want to know this also, as I want to buy one in the near future.

I ended up buying both, front and rear cradle braces, and it illuminated my wheel hop on the stock wheels and tires. I have 17" race stars with MT ET street R's and it seems to plant those well also. Also, I had the diff groan before I put these parts on and now I don't. It did not make the car ride stiffer, at least not in my opinion.

I think the eLSD has something on the factory crossmember right near where the BMR brace passes by the center.

Is yours a 1LE or a regular SS. Correct me if I am wrong but the 1LE has the same rearend as the ZL1.

You could always try a longer bolt or some other solution, but something tells me BMR would be selling the specific part for the eLSD application if it were that easy. |

I am struggling with keeping the tires from spinning at launch running 305/35/20 ET Streets - minor spin compared to prior tires, but I still can't launch the car consistently. I don't have any wheel hop issues so not sure if these would help my situation.
