your not cool until you got - camber....NOT lol nah i see what your saying though about how it looks good, but its deff not good on the tires. Im getting mine very soon...there not expensive
I dont think it looks cool?
And whats the point? Tires are ****ing expensive, plus it looks dumb to have your tires crooked in the back.
And dont say well you cant go low enough with perfect camber cause thats not true, i have perfect camber and im dropped well over 3"

Ok... the lowdown on Camber....
Performance wise... negitive camber is good. To a point.
on the street....after you lower the car (with out getting an alignmemtn)..... that is bad VERY VERY BAD.. Why? Because you will destroy your tires.... and Guess what! its not becuase of the negitive camber!!!! its because when you alter the camber angle you also alter the Toe angles... and Bad Toe angles will Eat tires MUCH faster then excessive camber. Point in case: I ran a set of tires at -2.3 deg camber for 60,000+ miles.... ya, it took them that long to wear the shoulder out on the inside, Because of the negitive camber. The reason they lasted so long was because the cars Toe settings were 0 all the way around. Now if the toe was a little too in or out, the tires wouldn't have lasted Half as long.
