-ve camber means the tyre top tilts in and therefore the inner side of the tyres touching the road have heavier contact and that means higher wear. But when the car corners, the tyres will have more contact with the road and that means better cornering stability.
For normal road use a -ve camber of 0.5 to 1 degree is maximum. Too much will kill the tyres.
For track, up to 3 degrees -ve, as they corners more then in the straights..... smile_wink.gif

For me, my views are mostly money for value. I do not have a budget to splash, or not in a position to...ha! ha!, therefore I do have quite a number of members following my recommendations..... smile_tongue.gif
PS3 after checking is more expensive then the F1 I was using. RM450 to RM390, so even if I change the tyres I would have gone back to F1. To me they are about the same in performance and handling, therefore price played the last part.
Then of course there are the V12 Evo and even Nexen 8000 on my mind. For my size the V12 are at RM350 (too close to F1 price) as F1 have better handling and performance, but Nexen are priced at RM290 only..... smile_shock.gif


its very big gap between the tyre price for 17inch.
as for 15,PS3 price is at a very fair rate...compare to normal tyres is just about rm20-40 diff...

No point if you are not the aggressive type. Tyre will wear inside and faster too....... smile_blackeye.gif

Yup, other than 15" ones, the prices of PS3 are expensive, especially the 16" one..... smile_shock.gif

Talking about -ve camber... after lower my car and also customized thicked anti roll bar, my rear un-adjustable camber are now at -3.7 to -3.9, that make my car look very touring car set up & very stable in fast cornering smile_thumbup.gif but it also really killing my tire & also slow down speed timing smile_angry.gif ...but lucky i 'm on stupid cheap N3000 smile_clown.gif . the special camber kits is on the way here and hope that will revert my speed timing back..but will also lost the FUN on the cornering smile_disapprove.gif ..

I need to check my PS3, tight high speed cornering with some adjustments the sidewall like flex, needed to apply brake and do more correction...nearly crashed into another car i was avoiding at the high speed corner....its unlike the PP2...hmm..PS3 grip was there..but sidewall flex during cornering adjustment. This PS3 loves to follow the cornering line only. Step away from it and you'll be in some trouble...

Could be a slow leak..or something wrong with the tire pressure.

Bro, azbro.. your front still with AD07 ? Maybe doesnt match since your front with harder side ..not sure.

Hv u increase your rear pressure for this and try again

ook,means is -ve when drive fast speed it'll straight up rite?
i think this is what my tyre shop telling me...but if drive slow at this setup will cost the inner thread or the tyre to wear faster...rite?

it shd not since its just - 0.5 ve.. unless pressure are really low. But if > - 1.0 ve then might be diff story liau
