alignment on e90 using e87 specs

I have a standard e90 with 18 inch wheels, had alignment done, but I noticed the spec sheet with the camber, caster, toe etc, that they used E87 specs.

Is this ok ? I'm concerned the specs to which they calibrated are not correct. Please advise..... thanks.

It might be the same... It also changes with sport/nonsport. Have that checked at the place you got the alignment. If it's wrong have them do it again.

Took it back and asked them to check the alignment, it was off a slight bit, perhaps still within specs, but they did it again for free and the car is noticeably perfect.
