Shop wont be able to align it if you trailing arm bushings are torn to pieces, check them first

Yep, toe most importantly but camber as well, dont need so much when im not flush yet. These style 68s work/look great for daily use but im gonna switch them out for something more unique once I find some wheels that I havent already seen on a dozen other e36s and then ill get that camber back if need be for flushnessOriginally posted by PHAS3D View PostWhen you get an alignment make sure and ask them to adjust the camber. Simple as that.

Yea I wasn't a fan of the tires anyways, came with the car which ive only had for 2 months now, 225/50s are balloons, good riddance!Originally posted by Bimmerteck View Postas the others have mentioned you need an alignment, specifically your rear toe needs to be adjusted. It looks like the problem did you a favor anyway as those tires are dry rotted as well.
I can only imagine with 214,000 miles that they are shot, hopefully the alignment shop will still be able to correct alot of the toe tho.Originally posted by cabezzz View PostToe is out of wack, check trailing arm bushings they are probably shot

e36 wants LESS camber/needs stance help!
So I switched out my h&r/bilstein combo for coils 3 weeks ago and loving the stanced look and will be ordering spacers as soon as I get around to getting my fenders rolled. However I ran into a problem, in about 3 weeks time ive managed to destroy my rear tires due to camber. The car hasnt been aligned yet and im def getting that done next week along with new rear tires. Question is will the alignment shop get rid of my rear camber or am I too low? Im willing to raise the rear maybe half an inch if need be.
Damage:


My feeble attempt at showing you my demon camber:

And heres how low I am, the tires came with the wheels and are way too big for the 8.5s in the back with 225/50/17. Id like to be flush once the spacers and smaller tires are on in a week, just dont want to go through tires every month or so. Im a spirited driver for sure but dont burnout or break the tires loose at all so advice please!
