JCW 2016 JCW alignment adjustments

If you are intending to remain within OEM specs, what difference does it make?
Or are you seeking a custom job?
The F56 does not support camber or caster adjustment out front, except through alternate hubs. Toe is adjustable of course.
At the back, eccentric bushings allow camber adjustment, and toe as well.
Cheers,
Charlie

Thanks for the response Charlie! I want to stick with OEM, but was looking to do it at Firestone since they offer a lifetime alignment which is beneficial since Houston roads are filled with potholes. From having a BMW in the past, I know that not all shops are equipped with the correct gear to do complete alignments. I was checking what Firestone told me they were able to do against Mini dealers in the area. All dealers said toe and camber for the rear. However, one said toe only for the front, another said toe and camber and the third said toe, camber and caster. I just wanted to make sure I did all my research before having the service done.
