Wheel Alignment - Negative Cambering !

[HRV-80Y]

okay simple question...

will a wheel alignment make my front camber more or less negative ?

sum ppl say more sum ppl say less ? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Have you got a camber kit to actually be able to adjust the camber?

On a stock dc2......you can't adjust the camber

[bennjamin]

AFAIK wheel alignment cannot adjust camber ( on ou hondas) , but it can adjust TOE though , and help minimise inner edge wear.

Also look at a front castor increase , and maybe if u are feeling $$$$ get a front camber kit :)


*EDIT* and yes i did say what Win just did too :cool:

castor increase....? :confused: :confused: :confused: wats dat ?

if your car is lowered (which it is!) you will need a camber kit to stop the insides wearing (that is assuming you aren't running too much to out which also causes excessive wearing on the inside of your tyres).

That said.......once your tyres start wearing the wrong way......it is quite hard to fix it as it keeps wearing that way!!!!

Have a look at what castor is here http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6396

sorry to hi jack :P

[wynode]

EG and DC2 camber kits should be the same :)

[nobbs]

just get a wheel alignment pas if u havent done it yet, it wil still wear uneven but it will wear less, then once they have worn abit just swap them inside out or rotate them (im pretty sure ur tyres dont have a direction)

ill explain to u more when i see ya

John, PM McChook. He can source Whiteline kits at a decent price. They're pretty good quality AFAIK.

Btw Pas, wheel alignment with your new rims (and offset if that's changed) should help your turn in/general handling respond a touch better too. :)

man you need to learn to type!
afaik a wheel alignment should not have MUCH to do with a camber adjustment. an alignment basically corrects toe in and out (?)
if your car is lowered then a camber adjustment wouldnt go astray. found that out the hard way with my old car. just had lowered springs when i got the car. after 6000km's the inside tyre was done to canvas

get alignment done right at the start.. and regular rotating/stripping fitting and u'll be fine :)
