Cambering can actually reduce wear on the outside of your tyre if you do alot of hard cornering. As you go round a corner the tyre sits flatter and has more contact with the road, so more grip. I would only advise on 10 inch wheels. I once had 1.5 neg camber on 13x 6 superlites with a low profile tyre and it was a nightmare, on a straight bit of road say with a ridge, the car would go where it wanted and dig in!
Are thy more worn on the out side?
Just a question, i have 165/70 10 Yokos, and have never thought about cambering my wheels, any advice? worth it? will tyres wear down, they have already worn quite a bit since december! makes me sick! haha
well they seem pretty even, just a considerable amount more than the rear, i know the rear wont wear down as much due to the front having most the grip, maybe its just the way i drive it sometimes, done some small mods and feeling the difference, having a little too much fun maybe haha
but what are the benafits of cambering?

Ideally because of the superior grip of 13" tyres you need to fit both rose jointed bottom arms and tiebars, the settings can then be set almost neutral, less drag, better cornering, less tyre wear .... and no wandering about, and I use 195-45/13" without any issues.
