    I think Tire Source has one. Which coils did you go with?

        I was in a scramble to get this done for tomorrow so I could drive it. I ran over to tire source right before they closed (thanks roland), they rent them for 20 bucks. I quickly rolled in the inner lip hoping that would work for the time being so I could drive to the DIY day tomorrow.. I went for a quick spirited drive after, the right still rubs on hard left turns. Didn't get enough seat time to get a feel for the suspension yet.
        Time for more rolling/camber.

        Edit: I purchased new Tein super street coils with pillow ball camber plates. I got an amazing deal on them, plus the nerd in me likes the edfc.

          Hm. I don't know of many folks running Teins on an E36, I'm curious how that will be!

            Get an alignment. If it's only rubbing on one side either the car's body is bent from a previous wreck, or the alignment is off.

              The M3 is a little JDM now...
              Gc setup with camber plates was almost 600 more. Is the GC kit better.... maybe. Is the difference worth $600 to me... prolly not. It's a DD which will see occasional track days, and the more common 2-3 am canyon runs. I put the money I saved towards a complete suspension bushing overhaul.

                Waiting to get an alignment until I can get my subframe back from the welder. I'm going to swap subframes, replace all the bushings, and adjustable lower control arms next weekend, than get it aligned.

                      Hahaha well I'm glad you did! My car sorely needed them.

                      What are your plans for this car?
