Whether you own a commuter or a track-car, nobody likes uneven tire wear and poor handling; they’re clear signs of incorrect camber and wheel alignment in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Camber refers to the off-vertical tilt of your wheels. If the top of your wheels are tilted inwards, then you have what’s called negative camber. If they’re tilted away from the car, you have positive camber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For road going cars, the camber angle is usually corrected as part of a routine realignment service which also deals with caster, toe, and thrust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But when it comes to race cars, the ability to alter individual suspension angles easily and frequently is quite a necessity. Even more so if the race car doubles up as a daily driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, camber is not the be all end all of wheel alignment. Other suspension angles also significantly impact the way your car drives, but more on those in another article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the basics of camber adjustment, why you’d want to adjust it in the first place, and the tools required to get it done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
