335d geometry at kwikfit settings
My outer edges on front tyres non rft (36psi front 38 rear) seem to wearing excessively, I had geometry done about 5 month ago but they had m3 settings in surely this isn't right what car should they use? Said 335d wasn't on the list.

M3 settings increase the tyre wear.
Normal M sports or bmw performance ZCP settings work best.

Funny you should mention this, I removed all my wheels on Friday and the back apart from being about 2-3mm across have worn evenly.
However my fronts have worn both inner and outter edges which tell me it's under inflatted? What pressures do you run for a non run flat, standard 330d size tyre? It's on vreds at the minute. Also the fronts could be heavily worn due to doing two track days but I can't decide which! One was in the wet and one was in the dry, backs have worn out in less than 6 months but I do accelerate when I like and as hard as I want regardless of wheel spin! |

I had mine M3 settings for 2 years now, Tyres has even wear across, I think i have 0 degree on toe/camber i think. but that sorted out the uneven wear.
2.4 /2.7 bar pressure, front tyres are 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. hope this helps

thats amazing, because i had a hell of a battle on my hands getting them to use M3 settings on my car, and it has M3 suspension (arms anyway)
iirc there is only a difference of 0.04 degree's Toe between stock and M3, the camber is set by the lower arms and subframe, so they cannot adjust that. |
