Can't get enough rear camber on my E46 M3 options?

Hi all,

I know this isn't Z4 related but you guys are so good and it's such a good forum I have decided to stick around and ask some questions and keep interacting.

So I have had the M3 a few months now and it hasn't gone trouble free but I'm slowing getting there with it now to a point I'm happy with.

I took it to get an alignment today after fitting some pilot super sports to the rear of the car all went well except for the drivers side rear camber.

The guy couldn't get it into spec and wasn't too sure why either so I was hoping you guys may have some ideas.

I have uploaded the picture to the thread (hopefully)

Would you recommend changing the rear arm for another OEM one to see if this allows further adjustment? Or would you buy the bullet and fit a set of Turner Adjustable Rear camber arms ( or similar).

I'm worried if I go the OEM route that it still won't solve the issue and it will be more wasted money. But the OEM arm is £30 instead of £300 for turner arms plus fitting.

Thanks

Ash

Did they put the correct weight into the car?

Hi Monaco Blue,

Yea the weight wasn't the problem he adjusted it to the max camber and that's all he seemed to get, need to get under and have a look, i'm hoping tis just a bent camber arm and nothing more serious

Thanks for the reply

You should be getting a tad more but personally get the rogue or turner rear camber arms.
If you're on cutters speak to mirror John forum sponsor there and he will do you a good price.

Has stock too and ships stupidly fast.

Warning though it does require a ramp as you need to drop the diff slightly to fit them on.

Doesn't take long on a ramp

Yea I have spoke to mirror John and I'm thinking of Turner arms but they are mega expensive compared to OEM, if I went for them hopefully I could get -2 neg camber pretty easily on both sides
