Me? Mine are at stock. As in normal Z4 set up. This wheel came off before the alignment but when I had it done mine only had a few amber areas, which I think were localised to the front anyway. So all inner wear is 'normal'. You just gotta keep your eye on it. Also the way you drive also plays a factor, which I can't allow for as this came to my attention a few weeks into ownership (I knew tread was low, I didn't realise quite how bad it was).

On a side note I'm planning on getting it re-done at the Z4 M spec. Which from my research is supposed to be an overall better alignment set up.
