Hi all, is the camber adjustible on 325i cabs, on the rear as one of my wheels is sitting more in than the other and the front passenger side wheel is sitting more out than the other.
i went to get the wheel alighnment done but they told me it is impossible to adjust cambers and advised me to get the wishbones replaced but cant guarantee that would sort the problem.
please can you help.

thanks

saqi :(

No camber adjustment as standard.

I understand that adjustable trailing arm mounts are available,but as my cars are more or less stock hieght I have never investigated further.

Reads as if you may have one or both rear trailing arms that are bent...and perhaps a front wishbone as well,has the car seen any 'curb action' that you know about?

was yours on the front or the rear, because mine is all on the passenger side, the back wheel is sitting too in and the front one is sitting too out! :x
