i lowered my 95 with h&R race springs, when i got my alignment done the spec sheet read that my right rear's toe was off 2 degrees out. the left is right on the money. any suggestions? could something be bent? what? what should i replace? anything i can buy to make adjustments? where?

thanks in advance

I know you can find offset trailing arm bushings for an e30 to correct toe or camber, I would imagine the same is available for a ti...
I would wager that your subframe or right trailing arm is bent. Did you ever get it aligned before the drop? My bud's e30 had a bent subframe for a while and toasted tires like you couldn't believe...(and the handling was...exciting.)

The BMW trailing arm rear suspension is incredibly limited in terms of adjustment, making it hard to dial out stuff like your weird toe. (read: not adjustable.)
