    If u go to a tyre shop, make sure u get a 4 WHEEL THRUST ALIGNMENT! if u only get the fronts or rears, the toe will not be corrected to 0.
    I have a cd5 with around a 3inch drop. my camber is between -2.5 and -3
    as my wheel shop said, its the same amount of camber as mark skaife.

    cb7 owner has a good point, this is what v8 supercars have.

    onto camber kits, I didnt get one because my tyres were about 100-120 each.
    I have 18inch wheels, and my tyres are 215/35/18. The sole reason i didnt get a camber kit was because-
    1) too much money at the time
    2) with low profile tyres (35) i thought it probably isnt worth it.
    My solution-
    flip your tyres making the inside edge the outside and the outside the inside when they get bad. I just did mine, can't really remember how many km's is suggested but it depends on ur amount of camber.
    So basically im probably getting at least 80% of the wear from my tyres. which isnt bad considering a -2.5 to -3 inches.
    i do take it to the extreme though and wait till they are pretty bald before i flip em, but it costs me like...$40 to flip all 4 so im not complaining.
    Still thinking of getting a camber kit after my next set of tyres.

    You cannot just flip them around as you are suggesting as most of the tyres made these days are directional tyres so if you turn them other way around they make your car becomes noisy as a truck..unnecessary to say that your safety is severely jeopardized .... good luck driving on wet
