Negative camber helpppp

my car is lowered on H&R sport springs and my rear tires have been wearing out sooo fast. this is the second set of rear tires for me due to my car sitting with a neg. chamber. I know theres people with my same set up on this forum, just a 325i non sport, with sport springs. what are you guys doing to resolve this problem? Is there a chamber kit out there for our cars?

Errr ... I thought that the e90 was adjustable for camber in the rear. Probably not going to be a huge adjustment, but you should be able to get some.

Don't need specs. The question should be, is it adjustable? If so, try -1 or -1.5 degrees. -2 will be too aggressive and cause inside wear.

some dealers don't do alignments for tuned cars (ie. lowered suspensions)
