Alignment Results . Eibach Pro Kit . Sport Suspension . Sedan
![]() Took my car into a local shop for an alignment and I got these before and after results: Front Camber: Spec Range (-1.05 , -.38 ) Left Before: -2.03 After: -1.57 Right Before: -2.01 After: -1.54 Front Toe: Spec Ranges (.08 , .16 ) Left: Before: .05 After: .14 Right: Before: .03 After: .13 Now from the searching I did I would be inclined to say my camber is fine and toe is wrong? I also thought I read in a few other posts that the toe is supposed to be toe in (-) and not toe out (+), do i have that right? Are these results fine? The shop also told me I needed an Adjustable Strut Mount in order to fix the camber into spec. Facelift 325i Sport Suspension running an Eibach Pro Kit and 19" staggered V710's

those toe specs are toe in you now have more toe in than you had before. The camber is not really worth worrying about either, depending on how you drive. Camber can be good for cornering. I didn't like that much toe by the way, is your car twitchier now? I also had those springs, I like them much with Bilstein sport shocks & struts.

More toe in increases straight line stability (and increases tire wear). Zero toe, and especially toe out, while increasing responsiveness can also make the car a little more twitchy.
