use tire temps to help determine where the camber shiuld be. When the tire is even across the suface, your at the right camber.

Re: How much negative camber is too much?
Since we're dancing on the dead (threads), I'll share.
The correct answer is: it depends.
Are you trying to maximize wear and contact patch?
Are you trying maintain heat?
Are you working with a stiff or soft sidewall?
Are you using camber to achieve a driveability solution?
Are you trying to maximize straight line speed?
Dynamic Camber or no Dynamic Camber?
2.5 degrees may be the right answer but then again so might 6 degrees.

That ^^^^. I've had between 2* to 4+* up front and anywhere between 1* and 3* in the rear... they were all "correct" for the time/place/application.
