I want to get new tires but it seems my wheels in the back tow out at the bottom a inch and a half to two inches. Is this just a alingment problem or am I looking at something more serious? I checked this by putting a square down on a flat concrete floor the tire at the top is almost 2inches in compared to the bottom?

Thanks

BMW uses a fair amount of negative camber to have their cars handle the way they do, the amount of camber for your car should be 2 °20' which is a fair amount and could seem excessive. The alignment should proceed at any rate, if there is an issue, it will be revealed when the specifications are analyzed. Let me know what those #'s are when the alignment is complete.
