Buy some SPC or any other aftermarket quality camber and control arms that allow you to add more negative camber.

This is the tire off a G with Stance GR+'s dropped to the max:



Anymore camber and you'll be on the rim..

Exactly right. I bought the Stance GR+'s off this guy, he's a member here. He had it slammed. I raised it up a couple inches. I had to take a pic though -what a waste of tire, handling, safety..and the OP wants more camber apparently.

What's the additional camber for? It's not making any sense to me whatsoever. I'd understand if you were trying to fit an aggressive wheel but for OEM 19's?

Long story short, guy sold me wheels that didn't clear BBK kit as he said so I had to add negative camber for them to fit. I'm re-barreling the fronts so I can correct it over the winter. Here is a tire with 5.5 months of use (less than 40 miles per week usually).

Maxed out camber is a "Trend" likely started in Japan. A "Trend" for those individuals that don't intend to drive there coupes/sedans more than a few miles from home. Oh and it's a good idea if Mommy & Daddy own a tire store cause tires won't last past 6K miles if that!

Well, I thought he might actually have a good reason for negative camber before I saw the pictures.

For daily driver that double for track use, I want my camber to be slightly negative (-2 to -3). (also, bad thing about double a-arm is pain to adjust). My last 2 sets of tires have worn at the outside shoulder first. My rears are max'ed out at -1.8 degrees and they are wearing about even, outside shoulder probably slightly more worn than inside. If i keep driving this car, I would also want to know what front camber arm gives negative adjustment.

But his car I think is too low for track use, so dunno why he wants the negative camber.

Agreed.

Short of getting completely custom arms I'm pretty sure the only other option would be to get some aftermarket control arms.

My car is not for track. I jus want it stanced. Trying to fit some wheels and without pulling my fenders
The reason why I posted a picture is because the first 2 answers I got was "lower it". Jus wondering who would want negative camber on a stock height car?

The tire pictures posted, did u guys try getting alignment? Toe causes more tire wear than camber.

Lone Wolf, what OTHER control arms allow for more camber adjustment? I couldn't find any
