APT 195 Report post Posted March 13, 2010 Hey guys noticed today that my e30 had a bit of a lean to the drivers side, then checked out the m325i and it had a worse lean to the drivers side. Anyone know what the cause of this is? i have got new shocks and springs all around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, because it's leaning over on the drivers side. Fuel tank and driver sit on the same side too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They were designed in Germany, so in a LHD example then when a driver gets in the car sits level.... bit hard to change a cars whole geometry when your just wanting to swap which side the drivers on, like the new Mini Clubman with the 3rd door facing traffic on RHD models Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antil33t 90 Report post Posted March 14, 2010 just put 17's on the drivers side and caps on the passengers, that'll sort out the lean. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
