What is best for Neg Camber?

[geordie56]

I am fitting my TT arms this weekend along with WALK and just want to know peoples experiance with best settings for the adjustment of the camber? what are you using and what is best for tyre wear etc...? Cheers.

WALK only effects (and improves) castor.

TT arms will introduce a very small but helpfull amount of camber and apparently has no adverse effect on uneven tyre wear.

HTH

i very much doubt that winding the TT arms to their maximum egative camber will have a bad effect on the tyre wear.  on a standard car they will allow you to reach 1.5Degree negative camber(1 degree std iirc).  on a lowered car that will increase slightly due to the geometry changes of the suspension.

this guy has them on his so you could always ask him if you wanted.

most of the cars on track days that want agressive settings, run 3 degrees or more

I run 3 degrees on mine up front, i dont really get any odd tyre wear, they wear really flat actually.... but then it does get used fairly hard

I don't think yours is a good example of everyday use, jabba

Actually i have done 10,000 miles since december, and its been at those settings ever since i first fitted the suspension back in may last year! it is still my everyday car but dont know how i have done that many miles tho!! haha

I have got somewhere around 2 degrees on mine and i found the best way to keep tyre wear even is just go round corners faster than you would straights.    works for me.

You know you want to 

[Janner_Sy]

what are you running mate.  top mounts i presume??

[jabbalad]

Yea KW top mounts and suspension set so the wishbones are level, just need to make some adapters to drop the track rods so there level with the wishbones

doesnt the whiteline bumpsteer kit change the angle of the track rod ends??

Yea but try finding them!
I tryed everywhere, but they all said they were on back order with no production date, whiteline themselves didnt seem to know they even made them 

[laurent.d]

I have more than 2° of negative camber at the front    thanks to Morego wishbones and a kind of WALK kit but from VWR.
I have got even tyre wear with 80% of highway 20% of bake twisty road and about 30 Nürburgring laps.
