135i N54 Corner Balance

I got my car corner balanced and aligned after I installed Kw V2 and my front/rear M3 arms plus dinan camber plates.

I went to a well known shop in LA... it was my first time there and had an okay experience, 3272 pounds without me in the car, 3/4 tank gas.

Here is my corner balance sheet from West End alignment

Interesting. What weight reduction have you done to the car?

My car was 1560kgs stock (3432 lbs)
and 1525kgs (3355lbs) after I changed exhaust (just resonators in mipipes), wheels(Advan) and brakes (Stoptech)
Both weights are with a full tank and no driver.

Two of these three statements might be true.

It means that for your statement to have any meaning it needs to include the how, when and where. What was it, "3000 even" on a scale accurate to the nearest 1000 lbs?

I have to believe that with your driving record you do things with a certain precision. Your statement lacks any precision. Further, it is not believable unless the car has been severely modified, explanation of which would be relevant.

So, you may have weighed it, it may have had 1/8 fuel, but it doesn't weigh 3000 lbs even. If I am wrong, present data.

I just went back and looked at my post.....it was supposed to say 3,300 even.


Sorry.
