    Are Treehouse CAB's more offset than OEM E30 M3?

    Wondering if the Treehouse bushings improve the caster (wheel centering) issue more than the OEM E30 M3 bushings.

    Treehouse claim's they do, so thats what I put on my car for my 5 lug swap (e36m). Also gave more clearance for the exhaust on the 24v swap. My wheels sit perfectly in the middle with them, so no complaints here just yet.

        Yes. Not a lot, but yes.

        Also you can slot the mounting holes for additional caster. I did so and I have my car sitting at 10.2 degrees of caster as per last weekends alignment.

          how much further forward does it push them?

          I'd like to do THR brackets but with 235s it already rubs the inner fender liner up front - not too bad, but it touches them at full lock. if it goes too far forward it would be a problem though..

            I was thinking of slotting the OEM lollipops for adjustment.

              reviving this thread for more info as my driver side tire rubs slightly at the front and I have THR cabs.

              I need my wheel brought back about 3mm to cure all potential rubbing. I think non M3 centered bushings would solve but with my exhaust, I can't fit tennis rackets. Anyone have tips for removing a degree or two of castor from THR cabs?

                I have a set of the treehouse cabs that i ordered without holes drilled. You could buy em off me and drill em if you like. PM.

                  Do you remember how much you slotted the mounting holes? I am thinking just 2-3mm will do it.
