I think for any agressive - semi agressive, you should just roll the guards to prevent an scrubbing and paint chipping at all. And remember that if you run big camber you will get big camber wear which means you gotta have deep pockets! Unless you wanna be cheap, buy some SYMMETRICAL tyres, and swap the tyres from LEFT TO RIGHT! not, back to front (that would do nothing).
Also, reckless what times did you get a wakefield last, pm me :)
PM'd ya David!,
if u wanna be cheap, u pay to get the tyres taken off and fliped over HAHA! Camber doesnt exactly chew that much tread as toe. gf's dc5 is running 0 toe and camber is like -2 - -2.5 in the rear and the camber wear was quite good for about 40k of street/slow driving so yeah! watch ur toe is protecting tyre durability!
Damn, that's pretty good, 40k kms.
Although, how come bigger rear camber? Shouldn't dc5s have bigger at front?
And pm again lol, inbox was too full.
^^ the rear is higher than the front I believe?
Yeah.. i know then again im lookin to avoid this... Mines only rubbin on fender JUST..Quote:

Have fun rubbing your side wall away.
haha functional flush ftw ;) i might be changing mine to +22 all around, the clearance between the inside front and the suspension struts at -3 camber is slightly disconcerting :(. I would recommend getting an offset lower than +35 on a X9 wheel if you plan on running any kind of track spec alignment.Quote:

Which obviously means Rob that im considering to go down to a 235/40 tyre size in the rear.
Im not afraid to have camber on my car and for your knowledge it's already running camber in the rear as the DC5, as we all know has camber naturally when it's lowered.
Rubbing isn't a good thing... so the simple solution to this is more camber.Quote:

I can understand that, but soon enough i will need camber at one stage in my cars life.Quote:
