My e89 went for its MOT last Friday (successful I might add) and as I had replaced all the front suspension arms I had booked it in to be tracked. I have lowered it by fitting a B12 Pro kit which throws the rear camber out so always had mild rear tyre wear on the insides, not a huge problem. So pulled onto the ramps and the guy after setting up and checking says that the rear is a country mile out on camber and toe did I want it all done :oops: , didn't know that you could track the rears on an e89 was my reply, well you can, for toe and camber.

The result, it definitely handles the bumps better, very noticeable. So if like me you didn't know, though I suspect many of you do know and I'm just late to the party, its worth, in my opinion getting it done.

Niall majority of the new Bmw models ( in general) can be adjusted at rear for camber and toe .
We use Hunter alignment equipment in work and my experience is majority of Bmw rear need some sort of adjustment even relatively new ones are not always set up correctly.
