camber question..

[e_a_u_c]

i am getting my 9.5 et 38 in my car but i am not sure how much camber i want to do.

how much a -1, -2 and -3 camber will affect my tire life?

what do u guys recomend?

All in. Word on the street is camber doesn't kill tires, toe does. I put a ton of miles on my OZ's in the few weeks I ran them, and no problems

 

[e_a_u_c]

so i should be fine

 

[RSMark5]

Yup. Should be fine. I mean you aren't going to get 20k miles out of those tires, but what really are you expecting with stretched tires and camber? I'd say 10k miles would be achievable

lol ok lets see how much i need to do

As said earlier, toe is what wears your tires more quickly than camber. But the more camber you have, the faster your tires will wear down. It will decrease the life of the tires substantially.

is it true you can adjust camber without buying camberplates? sorry if it sounds dumb but im a bit new in mk5. they say that the rear plates have a nut and you adjust different degrees of camber there.

thnx
