Anyone know the stock alignment settings for the E90? Also anyone know how much camber and toe adjustment is available on the stock suspension?

Thank you Mark! Just offering what I can.

That's right, Fleet has been MIA for a while. I really hope he found that job he was seeking.

Ray ... do you know of anyone that makes Toe Adjustment arms for the E90? and I guess I need camber plates for the front as Im going to be at like -3 Degrees camber on my wheel set up and I want to set the toe to stock settings.

How far off is your toe setting? What is the current spec?

Dont have the car yet ... but I know when I was running Neg 3 degrees on my evo it threw the toe settings off a few degrees. If thats the case with the E90 I will def need to adjust he toe which you said the stock set up is very limited on adjustment.

The toe adjustment range on the E90 is more than the EVO.

I have never adjusted the front camber that far before on the E90. However I once brought the rear to -3.1 and the toe adjustment range sufficed.

Ray ... sorry to bring up a old thread ... but do you have any idea of what the max neg camber on the rear of a E90?

This will all depend on the height of your vehicle. The lower the car, the more range you have. We also have to consider that no two cars are the same. Even the range between the driver side and passenger side can be different.

At OE height the range will typically vary between -1.7 to -2.0 (although I have seen some potentially reaching 3.0). at about a 2" drop in height, The range can increase to about -2.5 to -3.0.

so if I wanted a really aggressive camber set up like say -3 or -3.5 I will need adjustable rear arms huh?

Also where is the camber and toe adjustments located on the rear? I havnt crawled under there and looked yet.

The location of the the adjustments can be found on the rear lower sections of the suspension.

The camber adjustment bolt is located at the rear/inside end of the spring seat. The toe adjustment can be found right above it and attached to, what I call the "toe control arm."
