These are slipped behind the lower axle beam tube VW Beetles and Ghias, to increase the amount of front end caster the front wheels have.
Lowered cars have less caster, which is great for parking lot driving, but horrible for 80+ Kph.
You can stack these if you need to add a lot of caster, and will need longer bolts for using 2 or more sets of caster shims.
When you lower the front end of your car, the axle beam is "tipped forwards" which reduces camber. This makes the steering easy in slow speed conditions (great for off-road), but the steering gets really "Twitchy" at speed.
Since caster is not really adjustable, the only solution is to use these shims.
