R56 MCS Rear Neg. Camber?
Got a '08 MCS with Sport Pac. Does the rear suspension have neg. camber? My old eyeball inclinometer seems to indicate this. Just curious.

Your eyeball inclinometer does not need to be recalibrated. You are correct.

From the last alignment on my 07 MCS with sport suspension, standard rear camber is about 0°54' +/- 0°20'.

you should lower it... then you get CRAZY camber... helps when taking really hard corners but otherwise looks funny... i think i actually have to get some lower control arms to kick it back in a little..
