One of the tricks for getting your BMW to handle better is to add negative camber to the front wheels. This will put more of the tire's width in contact with the ground during cornering. With more rubber there is more grip. BMWs typically have less camber in the front to create understeer. But if you're running a stock setup on the track or autocross you are giving up speed and time as the front tires run out of grip sooner than they should. Here at Turner Motorsport, we offer a variety of camber plates, including our own in-house engineered version, so that you can pick out a solution that works best for your BMW.
The latest innovative design from the expert engineers at AST Suspension is a solution for BMW owners seeking additional camber adjustment while retaining the factory struts. AST Suspension’s lowering spring and adjustable lowering spring sets can be combined with the camber-adjustable top mounts, meaning customers who have already equipped their vehicles with those components can now improve camber adjustability without losing the electronic dampers’ OE functionality. These new top mounts provide an additional 0° to -4.2° of camber adjustment, improving on factory adjustments done via the OE arms. AST Suspension opted for solid bushings made from 7075 high-grade aluminum with stainless steel inserts, manufactured in Japan. AST Suspension has employed these bearings in various applications for over 25 years, and they are trusted for their long-lasting anti-wear characteristics that have led to success in endurance racing. As an added benefit, these motorsport-quality bearings are effectively silent, preserving factory NVH. AST Suspension specializes in producing suspension components for vehicles serving regular street use and competition purposes such as race, rally, autocross, and more. The company has continuously evolved since its establishment in 2000 and has always taken pride in its work. By combining in-house design and production with technical know-how, industry experience, and road-and-track testing, AST Suspension consistently produces exceptional suspension components at a competitive price.
