Neg. Camber?

Just installed my new set of 19's today. Found out it might be a little negative camber on the back. What do you think? The camber was set by the factory 2 weeks ago since I just took deliver of the car 2 days ago. Do I need an alignment job?

I don't know alignment specs for the E90s, but every BMW I can think of has negative camber on the rear. Enough to be visually noticeable too. I vote normal.

The rear will have negative camber and it will have toe in.

After I had my coil overs put on the shop put the alignment specs as close to original specs as possible. Your wheel looks just like mine.

yup, you are fine. if you lower it though, you will need an alignment.
