alright i just put the bilstein pss kit on my 92 325i. first of all i had to get strut mounts from bavarian because my car has a production date of 3/92.
So my stock mounts wouldnt work with the kit because apparently there is NOOOO kit made for my production date car wtf....why wouldnt bavarian tell me that in the first place.....well i got the mounts put the kit on and went to have it aligned....now my mechanic is telling me that he thinks i need camber mounts for the front because of the fact that there is virtually no adjustment on the bottom of my front coilovers...i also would like to run my stock 15 inch rims but nope because they dont have enough offset and when the car sets on the ground it rubs on the springs....i tried a set of 10mm wheel spacers and guess what...still not enough clearance i dont know what to do here....my dad called bavarian today to tell them the problem with aligning the car and apparently, all the guy he talked to said was "oooo wellllllllllll he lowered the car toooooo much" but he made no hesitation to sell my dad more parts right on the spot wtf i only lowered it by 1 inch front and rear because of the 16inch by 8.5inch wheels i have to run cause they give me enough offset to clear the shocks....this puzzles me also because on bavauto and in the magazine it says that they recommend wheel spacers for anyone running wheels bigger than 7.5 inches....so why am i running 8.5 inch wheels with no problem...just a bit of tire rub cause the sidewall of the tires are so big:lol: haha yeah i need to spend 400 bucks on lower profile tires...but thats my problem and ive had it for about a week now...im getting really fed up with this shit and with bavarian.....
So all in all i would like to know if you guys would recommend going with camber mounts because thats all me and my dad can think of to do...
I mean to i need the camber mounts to adjust the alignment...did bavarian just not tell me this and if so why wouldnt they have told me when i called about the first strut mount problem i had when they sold me the later production date strut mount....?????
I'm so confused and dont know what to do here.... .....please any input on this matter would be deeply appreciated.
