Turner fixed camber plates

Did anyone know these existed? Was looking at the Dinan set, and these have a LOT more camber to them (good or bad).

https://www.ecstuning.com/b-turner-m...025532tms01~a/

I was wondering if anyone had experience with them. With my setup I get a little rub (that might be helped if I just went down to 245/35/19 (from 255/35/19) but a little camber adjustment wouldnt hurt too.

No real track or curvy racing for me, just solving a problem (as I still kinda like the meatiness of the 255) and checking out options.

You fit 255/35/19 up front?? I have 245/35 and plan on going 235 because of the rubbing on the driver's side fender liner. I'm told this is 335is specific though.

The description says -2.5* total after installing, so it adds about -1.75* over stock (even though they claim it adds -2.5* elsewhere, I'm not sure how much I trust that honestly). Dinan's add -0.7* based on the description on their site.

Seems pretty good honestly, for what it is.

FWIW I just chatted with Anthony at ECS and he confirmed that we should expect a total of -2.5* after installation, not an increase of -2.5* over stock

Tires came with the 437m rims from an M4. When the tires wear enough, I was gonna get PS4s in 245/35/19. I usually only rub on large/rapid transitions on the road. ie. speedbumps I go to fast over or places where some idiot put an abrupt transition on a hwy overpass from concrete to tarmac. Normal otherwise.

Any case, thought the extra camber would help me (the 6mm might actually help too). Could roll them like I did the rears, but it doesn't look like it'll work out as nice for the liner.

F̶r̶o̶n̶t̶ ̶f̶e̶n̶d̶e̶r̶s̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶p̶l̶a̶s̶t̶i̶c̶,̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶r̶o̶l̶l̶e̶d̶ NOT TRUE ON E90. Camber and +6mm will help your rubbing but if you don't do enough hard cornering it MAY lead to uneven tire wear.

I'm considering those wheels too. Got any pics? How much did you pay for em--local guy is asking 1500 with light scuffs on two of them, ideally I want em for 1k without tires but I'll have to see. I love my 313's but the PO hit every curb in sight on em

Front fenders are not plastic on E90. I think $1500 is good with tires, maybe you could bargain for a little less without given scratches. I see them on ebay for about $300-400 on average with the occasional bargain basement price from some guy that just wants to offload. Which makes a difference if I have to get them from continental US (being in Hawaii) and shipping eats a good amount into final cost.

Here are some older pics.

Those look good. Thanks for the info on e90 fenders--new knowledge to me. Apologies for posting misinformation; I'll edit that post.

Wheels looks good. I love the look of the oversized tires

BTW, good point here. Maybe Dinan is the way to go for me as I'm not an avid racer/xcross/twisty guy.
