E63 Kmac front camber kit installed
I just want to share some infomation and feed back on the KMAC front camber kit Part number 502216K.
My car is lowered 28mm front & 14mm rear
Initial: Left -2.2, Right--3.7 degree
Final: L -1.2, R -1.6
About 600 miles after I installed the Carlsson LM I noticed the front inner side of my front tires is wearing uneven but the rear is fine so I got the Kmac front camber kit. I got a german auto shop to install it today, take them 4 hr included an alignment.
Even with the camber kit they couldn't alignment it to factory spec but got it as close as possible.
SO if you lowered your car more than 1.5" this kit is not going to help you.
Ride feel solid, steering is more precise almost like on my 911. High speed cornering is excellent. Over all it like a track car, maybe due to my alighnment being set close to factory or the low profile tires. What ever it is i'm very satisfied with them.
These are the factory parts. I heard these are liquid filled by someone on this forum. Not so just solid rubber.

Peter,
Just fitted them also due to being lowered and excessive tyre wear on the front, was a fairly straight forward job to do with a 60 ton press (this can not be DONE WITH A VICE, which is what I was originally told as you will be there for hours!).
Also fitted MB arts arms for the same reason thanks to Jay...... top quality items.
Will get an alignment done ASAP, how have you found them,,, any difference in ride or drive?
Very pleased with the the bushes and arms ....... apart from the huge import TAX I paid to get the parts into the UK
!
Just noticed you have SOLD next to your SIG,,,,, whys that? ,,,,,,,,,I know these cars are money hungry.
