i got an 04 525i and i just got it lowered today and the rear seems like its kinda cambering where it angles a il, does anyone have this? would getting an alignment fix it to where the wheels will be straight up and down?

A negative camber is expected when you lower a car. I have the same issue...my rears cambered to -2 after lowering. An alignment helps a bit but they need to be aware that you want a minimal camber. I had mine aligned right after I lowered but they didnt seem to adjust the camber at all. :\

cool thanks busta!! so when i got to a alignment place tomorrow i should tell them that i need minimal camber??does that tell them that they need to make it back to normal as much as possible?

Yes :) All E60's have a slight negative camber in the rears...helps performance but something like -2 or -1 will hurt tire thread ware. At the least they'll try to remove as much as they can.

alright coo, thanks bro!

Post some pics when you get a chance...I want to see your Seva wheels on a E60 :)

ill try to get some pics posted up tomorrow

You bought the seva wheels from Carl in Miami?

no from cb wheels in miami, but right now im dealing thru carl becuase of a manufacture defect but he hasnt called me back about it because the wheels arent in stock so they cant send me another rear wheel i guess
