I had eibach front springs installed on my RWD G80 M3. Afterwards I was looking closely at the steering wheel and noticed it seemed pointing a couple degrees off center to the left when going straight. I was planning to take the car for an alignment within a week or so anyways so didn’t worry about it.
Just had the alignment done and noticed the steering wheel seems the same. I’m wondering if maybe it’s normal and it’s just my frame of reference vs the wrapped screen/dash that makes it appear to be pointing a couple degrees to the left. Photo attached probably doesn’t help much but wondering if anyone else senses the same on their car. Also including the alignment sheet. Seems only toe was changed slightly? Should I be concerned the vehicle listed on the spec sheet is a “2022 G20 on 19s and standard suspension” vs my actual car being a 2023 G80 on 19/20s? How do the numbers compare to yours? |

Searched some more and looks like this is a known common issue https://youtu.be/Mpfifj-RkFk

I’m no alignment expert. But, from what I know about alignments, tie rod adjustments, are responsible for steering alignment. Worst case scenario, I put the thread back at the top for someone else to see it and answer.

They screwed up the alignment, the steering wheel was slightly off and adjusted everything to that.

That’s the only thing that made sense to me. Glad they fixed it.
