I recently purchased a 84 633 CSi ($800) and have a problem with the rear wheel canted with the top of the tires inward. The drivers side leans in 9 degrees and the passenger in 6 degrees. I cant seem to find anyone who understands why they are different from side to side. I have read about bushing problems but even using jack stands and a floor jack to raise the rear of the third member only seems to correct the passenger side. Also need to find replacement rear coil overs or air adjustable shocks as even having 1 passenger in the back lowers the rear of the car over 2". Good car but a few problems with it and not very much info on it out there, including all the BMW dealers in the Dallas area.
