Well ime using my m30'd touring as a daily and a drifter and since xmas i have killed 3 sets of tyres, and its always because of the stupid natural rear camber you get from a lowered e30...
So my question is, what is the best way to go about adjusting it? Ie eccentric bushes or top mounts etc
Best way to correct rear camber?

you need to get adjustment tabs welded to the rear beam, then you can use eccentric bolts (from an e39 iirc) to adjust the toe and camber.
eccentric bushes work, but have to be pressed into the position you want them in which is pretty trickey, and then theyre not adjustable.
the position of the topmount won't make the slightest difference, the wheel will sit exactly the same even if you took the damper right off.

Alternatively, you could always raise the suspension back into spec.

Thats the boring option ;)
If i wanted to do that i would have done it and not come on here asking how to adjust camber!

Other option is raised rear beam mounts, work for small drops around 25mm.
I have a set to fit to a e36 compact shortly, so i will post results and a full shake down of what was done.
Its the NP-Team.eu set that I have but I believe revshift do a set as well.
