Default Max camber with all original parts?

I've searched but haven't found info on what max camber can be set in the front and in the back with all original parts. Anyone know?

On my M3 E36 3.2 i swapped the left and right top mounts in the front which gave me a well working -3.2 camber which I drove with for many years. I noticed the CSL top mounts are offset in a similar fashion so swapping them would - if it's possible to swap them on a E46 - give added negative camber, but I have no idea what the adjustment range would be. I've tried to google for this info but came up empty. Anyone know?


TIA!

Depends on the chassis but not much more than 1.8 on the front, less is more likely

Friend from Greece has tried this in his CSL and it was working.

Thanks for the info! I'll give the swap a go and keep my fingers crossed for decent camber values!

Yeah, too bad that page is missing. I'll give google another shot.
