If the car sits level, obviously the rear fitment will be closer, or tuck more than the front depending on how you set it up.

    I'll take a pic for you guys to show how much rake the car has to have to have even tuck front and back. It's rather silly looking. Drag car status, if you will. Thank you though :)



    Hugely appreciated. I don't fancy myself a writer, but just happened to pick it up. I failed my writing prompts in high school and got Cs on most papers, so its humorous to be regarded as a writer by many these days.
    I think it came from my first english professor in college. Not sure what it was she did, but she made something click, and I find a bit of enjoyment in writing things I care about.
    Still wondering about those pics you shot with the factory csl? Ever post them?

      Yup! There's a thread on bimmerforums, or on BMW's official facebook page. :)

        Dumb. That much rear camber ruins the motorsports heritage and purpose of the car. Might as well rust it at this point.

          I'm hoping you been sarcastic, but if not then that statement is far from true. If it was a CSL, then it would have been ruined, it is just a 2800. And that is coming from someone that owed an E9 and is all about vintage motorsport livery.

              I absolutely love the car. After reading how you don't consider yourself a writer well you should hire a writer for stanceworks, You do have awesome pictures but the articles lack so much information its frustrating. Short and concise yes but lacking many things i care about such as build thread, specs on suspension (kind of a big part of stanceworks), and maybe more of a story about the car. I love the site and everything stanceworks does!

              BTW you having another tailored event in Tacoma washington this summer? By the way seattle is not tacoma haha

                E9's are so pretty. I would rock it more OEM but props nonetheless

                    Those E9's started my long-held crush on BMW car design. I loved the silver couple look especially. So about 30 years later, finally have an E30!
