i would like to know this as well. i know you can adjust camber to some degree, but has anyone produced an aftermarket camber kit?

well i just got mine on so ill have to let u know on tread wear but i highly doubt it would be any different considering the fact the dealers sport package is no wear near as good as an aftermarket suspension..ohh yea it doesnt have suspension!
all it is is better wheels and rims than stock and the rest is interior...
So u can by far get the same performance either way sport on non sport..
this is taken from the bmw site:

Sport Package

* Double Spoke (Styling# 161) light-alloy wheels, 17 x 8.0 front, 17x 8.5 rear; 225/45R-17 front, 255/40R-17 rear performance* run-flat* performance tires*
* 8-way manual adjustable front sport seats with adjustable back bolsters, and 2-way headrests and thigh support
* 8-way power front sport seats with adjustable back bolsters, 2-way manual headrests and thigh support; driver memory for exterior mirror and seat positions*
* 3-spoke leather-wrapped multi-function sport steering wheel with audio and accessory phone* controls

i'm pretty sure that the sports package has stiffer springs. The aftermarket suspension guide states that the sport package lowers the car by 6".
