The new V2 H-Sports plates are well-designed and much sturdier than the IE plates, and price is about the same as the Helix if not a wee bit less. Give the guys at www.customminishop.com a call. Brad is running on the Helix plates and Steve is on the 'new' or V2 H-Sports so they might be able to help you decide. I just put a set of the H-Sports plates on my MCS and very happy with them.
Out of curiosity why did you decide agains the H-sport version 2's ? the first ones were really bad but the ones they put out now look pretty good .

That usually means the springs are turning on the perches due to binding. What kind of plates do you have?

Mine did that when there was enough camber that the stock springs rubber the strut tower. The passengers side is usually the culprit.
Mine was the worst when backing out of my driveway and cranking the wheel to the left.
Johan, I have the RDR's. Very nice. Bolt heads rusted though. Since replaced with nicer hardware.
