Allignment specs for M3 suspension parts..

chiefsotos · 05-21-2013, 08:55 AM

Hello i have an e93 335 and will make the m3 front and rear suspension parts upgrade. (tension struts, wisbones, guide arms).
What is the best allignment specs tha tshould i use after this upgrade?
Some people said to leave all 335 specs except camber in front. Is it right?

BEST alignment?

Front:
-3.5º negative camber
1/16th toe-out
MAX caster

Rear:
-2.5º negative camber if staggered, -3º if not
1/32nd toe-in

I'd go -4º up front but I doubt the strut towers will allow it even with the best of camber plates.

That's about perfect for a street driven car. I run -1.7 front -1.8 rear and my car handles like a sports car. You'd want more neg camber at the track.

i want it just for street use. So I run -1.7 front -1.8 rear is the deal?

Or -1.5 as you stated. Depends on how often and hard you corner. Not much difference between the 2 settings

I just want to know if te front and rear camber should be the same or the rear must be 0.3 degrees more? Only for street use.
