Is there cupping etc or do you mean that the inside edge is worn (but worn evenly along the edge)

If you have what I call uneven wear such as cupping then you likely have other issues such as bushings.
Inside edge is worn. Evenly.

I'll put the car on the hoist and check out the camber adjustment points
I wouldn't expect the front to have that much wear at -2.1. But expect more now with those toe settings. A small (minimal side of stock). toe would be better front. Stock negative camber front is -1.0 (-.7 to -1.3)

With -3.4 rear you're going to eat tires like crazy. That's extreme even for a track set-up. Stock is -1.6 to -2.1. You do want some toe-in rear, towards the "more" side to keep the rear planted. Here are the stock specs. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...61&postcount=4

To get things back to a more stock setting you'll probably need these http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-35...reettrack.aspx.

There are many in depth discussions on this topic (and adjustable camber arms) to look though if you need more detail or pro/con here.
