Last time I had it aligned....

SO the last time my car aligned after the H&R's went on they said they maxed out the adjustments as far is it would allow leaving some camber still.

Now I'm not too clued up on what is good in terms of neg camber on our cars but having changed the tyres today to a full set of Vreds and seeing the state of the old ones my inner tread was goosed completely. almost like an inch in the the inner tread was completely gone.

This was the print out I got at the time last year...



So is -2.18 -2.19 on the rear too much? and do I need to get someone else to do it? These guys are used by a lot from scoobynet apparently and know their beans. second opinion please..
 
Your rear camber isn't too bad. Here's my graph. As you can see, my rear camber is more than yours and my rear tyres lasted about 12,000 miles. Wear obviously was worse on the inside edges, but not by a huge amount.

Thanks dude. Put my mind at ease. I'll be checking it again anyway due to far too many pot hole hits this year
 
I will be fitting a Bilstein B12 kit (which lowers the front 30 mm and rear 20 mm) with 224 wheels (225/40/18 and 255/35/18) next week, and wondered what setting should be used on a Z4 Coupe - would it be better to go for a Z4M set-up, as above or just a standard Z4C set-up?
 
Your camber is fine, your toe is quite big, that cancause excessive wear. (but also gives a planted rear end)
here's my numbers for compare

Because it's in dutch here's the translation

Wielvlucht = camber
Askanteling = caster
Sporing = toe
