Camber is the tilting of the wheels from the vertical when viewed from the front of the vehicle. When the wheels tilt outward at the top, the camber is positive (+). When the wheel tilts inward at the top, the camber is negative (-).
The amount of tilt is measured in degrees from the vertical. Camber settings influence the directional control and the tire wear.
| • | Too much positive camber will result in premature wear on the outside of the tire and cause excessive wear on the suspension parts. |
| • | Too much negative camber will result in premature wear on the inside of the tire and cause excessive wear on the suspension parts. |
| • | Unequal side-to-side camber of 1 degree or more will cause the vehicle to pull or lead to the side with the most positive camber. |
