[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 441645, member: 4527"] Bong, before anything else, when was the last time u did your alignment? Since u just slapped on some nice PS3 at the rear, best do the alignment first. Make sure the tyre shop familiar with E46. I only know E90 rear camber adjustment need super long size 17 wrench. Not every tyre shop has it. When u do the alignment go see the reading on the machine. Ask the foreman to explain to u the readings. I only look at toe in, and camber. Refer to the link I posted in page 1 for u. Those are recommended figures, they may not get it 100%, agak2 will do. Pay attention to your rear camber. If u see positive camber, all your problem solved! Set it to negative 1.34 and u are all set! All this suspension hardening, fender rolling and what not are meant for extreme moders.. we newbie best stay stock to avoid tweaking the wrong things. If you are already at negative 1.3, then u may ask for say -1.6, I think that's max. For your info, some of us are running -2.0 :D If that couldn't solve, I'll take u to a place that do fender rolling using this: [IMG]http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs065.snc3/13316_10150173484535007_321546780006_11769170_5037483_n.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
