I lowered my e92 M3 on H&R springs and added 19x10 fr and 19x11s r with a265/30/19fr and 295/30/19. (AD08s)

When I go to the Alignment shop what specs should I ask for??
thanks for the help

You can just ask for stock settings.

You can ask for OEM specs. It all depends on what would you be using your car for. For example, I asked OEM specs on the rear and a little bit aggresive camber up front. It is better for the turns when I go up for a mountain drive. But my tires will be wearing out a little early on the inside threads. So it really depends on how you want to drive your car.

You'll probably benefit from a little aggressive camber up front. I'm planning on getting adjustable camber plates. You might want to maybe look into that too.

I think I want something that is kind of aggressive but still good on the street for a daily driver. (if possible)

My front camber is -1.08 and rear is -1.03. I like the way it feels, it has pretty good control of the road when driving aggresively.

I think I'll ask for that then! Does tire size matter and also being lowered?
