2006 330i Negative Camber

[928drvr86.5]

I noticed our sport packaged 330 has a few degrees of negative camber on the rear wheels, is this normal for BMW to set 'em up this way? I didn't notice the negative camber before we put the winter wheels on but then we only had the car for two days at that point.

I guess it WOULD be more noticable with the 225/45/17's than with the 255/35/18's.

BMW has negative camber built in to every single car they've made in at least the past decade. A friend of mine has a 635CSi and even that has crazy negative camber.

It helps with handling.

Yeah, i know that it helps in hard cornering, i was just wondering if it was that way from the factory or whether the it was something the first owner did. We bought this car pre-owned with 5k miles on the clock. So i guess it was probably that way from the factory. Thanks.
