But This is quite surprising. I took the car to Crevier BMW, to see if the car needed an alignment. I was told that my driving style - aggressive cornering- was more likely the cause. I went to an independent local shop for a second opinion, were I was told that due to the low negative camber (-.8) and the non adjustable nature of Mc Pherson struts, this is a rather common trait among BMW's. He suggested the installation of camber plates, in order to minimize wear. Anyone had this kind of issue? Are Camber plates worth it, knowing that I will probably track the car maybe once or twice? Any advice, besides the fact that I should drive like a Granma?
get the M4 LCA
