I swear X5 rear camber is set at about -25. They look horrible from behind.

Sorry to threadjack... but rather than starting my own thread, can someone tell me if these settings are good? The shop didn't have the alignment specs for the 2015 M4 and they said they did it based on normal BMW numbers.

I lowered it with HR springs and wanted to make sure alignment was done right.

My 2015 M3 had -1.5 deg of camber on all four corners. I run -2.5 degrees of camber on my race car front, -1.5 on the rear. Where do you get -5 deg of camber frpm?
