Okok! So with the front there is no problem! And the rear, you are not using tire with camber? You don't need to put any camber to fit it correctly?

Not sure what you mean by Using the tire correctly. The tire size for the rear is 255/30/19 then Aligned the car to have -1.8 degree camber for performance and fitment without rubbing. The camber degree is basically how much angle the wheel has. That can be adjusted with an alignment which is recommended after doing suspension. You don't need any camber plates or bolts for adjustment.

Ok good! You know its hard to express yourself when your French, and your trying to ask a specific question.. With English term. Anyway :P what I mean is, you don't have to buy new tire every summer because tire were used in camber.

I've look for a couple suspension kit, and saw one witch drop 1.2 front and 1 rear. No camber plate required. Hope it can fit with vossen wheel. What is your offset? For front and rear! Thank you! Hope you can understand me :P

No worries man. The tire wear with -1.8 Degree Camber is minimal, that also depends on how much and how hard you drive the car.
I recommend you go with H&R Sport Springs Lowering 1.8 Front and 1.2 Rear Part# 29187. This setup will give you a more aggressive drop without having to do any modifications at all. Offsets are +40F and +55R. Hope I was able to answer all your questions.

Your welcome, Just request the Fitment for the 135i. No need to change the shocks. Just the springs will do.
