E63 lower on one side after links installed
I had my car lowered H&R springs in the front and links in the rear and the car sits lower on the passenger side by about a 1/4 inch anyone else have this problem?
Also they couldn't get the alignment back to spec they suggested a camber kit or I would have the inside tires wear out long before the outside. Has anyone installed something to fix this?
Thanks.

i've lowered mine the same was you have, OP.
Most likely the shop needs to tinker with the length of the rear links to get them to where you'd like the car to sit.
Sadly yes camber is an issue. I'd like a camber kit, but then again, tyres get replaced every year anyway, so I'm not overly bothered tbh.

I notice sometimes after driving, when I put the car in the garage one of the rear sides will be higher than the other.
After reading your post I went out to the garage and yes the passenger rear side was higher than the left. I started
the car put it in comfort then back to sport 1. Car leveled itself out. Maybe give that a shot. Also I have the KW height
adjustable kit which I like very much.
