C'est agressif !

Pas encore de tracking. Juste maximiser les supports de stock sans plaques de carrossage et broches d'usine en place.

Je l'ai. D'où venez-vous, avez-vous remarqué des différences ?

Se préparer à tirer mes épingles et obtenir un alignement bientôt. ZCP E90, suspension de stock, 255/275 PS4S. La voiture est un jouet week-end / canyon; pas de conduite quotidienne / déplacement, mais aussi aucun suivi. Je suis à la recherche d'une configuration amusante et dynamique, mais stable qui ne portera pas prématurément les pneus.

Je pense à ceci :

-1.8* cambrure avant (ou max/equal)
1/32" avant total toe-in [OU zero toe]
Roulette max / usine (pas sûr s'il y a un ajustement ici avec le matériel d'usine; environ 6.5-7 *)
-1,4* cambrure arrière (ou 0,5* moins de cambre négative que l'avant)
1/16" avant total toe-in [OR 1/32'' avant total]

Pensées ? Suggestions ?

Il m’a fallu bien trop de temps pour en arriver là puisque je conduis rarement ma voiture. Mais aujourd'hui, les pneus ont continué et c'était aligné.

Devant:
-1.2* (tout ce qu'ils pouvaient obtenir, pins tirés)
.04» ( ~ 1/32»)
7.2* roulette

Arrière:
-1,7* cambrure
.09’ ( ~ 1/16”)

Je suis content du cambre avant et arrière pour l’instant mais un peu déçu par le cambre avant, je pense que les plaques Dinan sont dans mon avenir. Les pneus sont géniaux, pas de surprise là-bas.

What do the tags on your front springs say? X5, x6, x7?

Took me way too long to get around to this since I rarely drive my car. But today the tires went on and it was aligned.

Front:
-1.2* (all they could get, pins pulled)
.04’ (~1/32”) total toe in
7.2* caster

Rear:
-1.7* camber
.09’ (~1/16”) total toe in

I’m happy with the toe and rear camber for now but a little disappointed in the front camber, think Dinan plates are in my future. Tires are awesome, no surprise there.
How much did you aim for the front Wyatth?
Sorry, haven't checked springs yet.
I aimed for max negative front camber and was hoping to see -1.8*, realistically expecting -1.6-1.7*. But -1.2* was disappointing. Dinan camber plates in hand and going on soon, should get to -2.0* with them. Which is nice, but didn’t really want the 1/5” height increase (although maybe the fabric under trays may last longer, haha).
Coilovers

-3.5 f
Toe 0
Caster 7.4

-1.9 r
Toe 1/8 in and this helped stability under braking bigtime!

Feels good
Ohlins coilover - the rest all stock. More responsive steering, fast turn-in response with 0 front toe and -1.5 camber. Feeling very good.

Camber:
-1.5 front (pins pulled)
-1.35 rear
Toe In:
0 front
3/32" rear
Caster +6.75

*Added the Dinan front plates and got to -2* in the front, both sides. Feels great now, very noticeable.

Zero front toe: Not many people do this, but I too have it in my M3. Learned this (simple ) trick from my Porsche tuner. The result, very fast turn-in response, is fantastic.
Thread referenced by Helmsman in I want to love the E90 M3 but... 18/11/2019
Front
-3.7 camber
+6.5/6.7 L/R
0 toe

Rear
-2.2 camber
1/8 total toe in

Would like to change up the camber plates to get more caster in the future. Currently on GC street. MCS DA remotes.
It seems like there is a large range of rear toe numbers here. For a dual duty car with -2.5' and zero toe up front and -1.9' camber in the rear what should I do for the toe?

1/8 toe in on each side.
Here's mine:

Bilstein Damptronic Coilovers
18x10 Apex
275/35 Azenis

Front:
Aligned wheels to 0 toe.
Camber is -1.8 degrees

Rear:
2mm total toe-in
-1.9 degrees
2011 Comp, H&R sport in the front only. SPL adjustable caster bushings.

West End Alignment in Los Angeles. The only shop I’ll let touch my cars. They get every spec exactly where you want it. It’s 40 mins away but still totally worth it.

Front

Toe -3/32
Camber L -2.1 R -2.2
Caster L 7.5 R 7.5

Rear

Toe -3/32
Camber L -1.7 R -1.7

I asked for zero toe, but the techs recommended slight toe in to
combat the negative camber for tire wear and for stability. Consensus seemed to be zero toe was best, but they explained it wasn’t. They said neg camber wears the inside edge, and toe in puts strain on the outside edge. Make sense, time will tell!

Finally got my car aligned, and corner balanced. Glad I did, as my previous alignment was pretty awful. Let me know what you guys think of my current alignment..
I think it matches on both sides.

Why the toe out on the front? Zero toe seems to be popular for tracking but toe in for the street.

I originally requested zero toe up front, the guy who owned the shop that was aligning my car recommended he add a little toe — the exact reason why I don’t exactly remember. He had a good reason though, something in regards to it evening something out, and when the car is on the road it will end up balancing out to feel like it has zero toe. Wish I remembered what he said. He builds / aligns race cars that podium in 24hr / spec races all across the country so I trusted his input.
Isnt positive toe equals toe in? In regards of Dreamer99's user avatarDreamer99 post.
