I want ask the same, in which conditions the 15 degree caster blocks must be used. And how about HB RACING STEERING BLOCK SET (4 DEG), when it must be used?

I find the 17.5 degrees (stock) provide better steering than 15 deg, and in some conditions the 20 degrees are better still. When the traction is good, 17.5 degrees provides great steering. If the traction is low or the car steers too quickly, I find the 20 degrees are better.
I go back and forth between 17.5 and 20 degrees. The difference is substantial, but unfortunately an expensive price to pay for the tuning option.

I've been wanting to try the 20 caster but price is too high for me..

When using the hard rear arms are you guys using the carbon or stock inserts?

we ran the 15 degree caster with the 4 degree spindles at the worlds. It gives more mid corner steering. it is also better in the bumps.
