Camber






Camber is the inward or outward tilting of the front wheel 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 wheels tilt inward at the top, the camber is negative. Camber influences both directional control and tire wear and will also cause a vehicle to pull or lead to one side (whichever wheel has the most positive camber). Refer to the image.
