Default Camber off with Rims?

i was wondering if you had a stock ride with 17 or 18 inch rims, if your camber will be off??

but i think with bigger rims... the angle of which the camber is off will LOOK greater... because you will see more of a slant with bigger rims... but the actual numbers dont change.

I am having the same problem with my rims and drop. I have 18's on it and I am riding on the inside of my tires bad. How well does the alignment kit work?

yeah, cuz the camber looks pretty off with a drop.. the reason i asked the reason im askin is cuz i just got some 18s.. and with my sportline drop.. you can see mad negative camber.. so instead of getting a camber kit, i was thinkin of takin out my drop (cuz i scratch like mad).. so i might do that.. thanks guys...

dont take the drop off...it will look much worse w/rims and no drop. Just suck it up and get a camber kit.
