    negative camber issue

    my car has a lot of negative camber. i am unfamiliar to the e30's ( bmw in general ). my strut bearings are bad and i'm going to replace them but i see that there are 2 options. non-adjustable bushings for 30 dollars each or adjustable bushings ( plus or minus 30 degrees ) for 240 dollars each. so my question is did these cars come w/adjustable bushings and someone down the line took the cheap way out or are the cars designed with the alignment that way. i've looked at pics of other people's ix's but unable to come to a conclusion. all help is appreciated.

    rear has no adjustment but you can add a kit for a price.
    In the front replace your upper mounts and make sure your control arms(balljoints) are in good shape. not much else to do aside from changing your springs.
    If your rear looks like it has terrible camber and it sits very low compared to the front, your springs may just be tired. I had similar with an IX i picked up recently. Replaced the springs and got rid of a TON of camber.

      if your suspension is stock, replace everything with new OEM parts because it's simply worn out. you don't need adjustments for stock suspension.
