Default Is this considered negative camber?>pics inside.

hey guys. i had a thread up a few days ago about possible bad camber on my prelude. it doesnt look to bad and most mechanics have said if its not really bad it shouldnt wear out the tires. and that is my only concern. check it out. and tell me what u think. thanks. sorry if pics arent good enough

I'd need to see numbers, but if it isnt too bad, you could be fine with just rotating your tires every 3000 miles or every oil change to keep the tires from wearing out fast.

Have alignment done and you will see. Toe is the main one kills your tires.

k thanks. well the guys that did my alignment said nothing about anything they just did it and thats it. but im going back tomorrow and im gonna point out the camber and possible toe problem. and see what they will suggest. if my camber isnt much of a deal im just gonna leave it as it. because my front wheels are fine

it looks a little excessive. probably about 2-3 degrees negative. on normal tires this isnt horrible but since your running very low profile tires which dont have much of a sidewall to flex i would definately get it fixed. when i get my rims and tires i'm going to set it at -.8 degrees. mainly because tires are expensive and it will handle good without having a lot of tire wear.
