Do modified car tires with negative camber cause uneven tire wear?
1 Answers
Modified tires with negative camber will cause uneven tire wear because both the camber and toe angles deviate significantly. Explanation of negative camber: When the steering wheels are mounted on the axle, their rotational plane tilts slightly outward at the top. This phenomenon is called negative camber. The angle between the wheel's rotational plane and the vertical longitudinal plane is called the negative camber angle. The negative camber angle is usually very small, only about 1 degree. Functions of negative camber: Improve the safety of front wheel operation and ease of steering control, prevent wheels from tilting inward, reduce the load on the outer small bearings of the hub, prevent tires from slipping outward, and facilitate contact with arched road surfaces.
