Yes, this is normal for almost every BMW that I've owned. The only way to correct the camber to almost 0 is to use adjustable lower control arms. I do admit that I am not 100% sure that our X5s have one (which I assume they do) this is how we fixed my M3s inner tire wear.

Thanks to all for your input...

The negative camber is what allows for better handling in the turns. And the X is not that bad (though it looks it). Just do a quick Google on the 2004 350Z's :)
