is this the cool thing to do?

 

another

 

From Wikipedia:

"Camber angle alters the handling qualities of a particular suspension design; in particular, negative camber improves grip when cornering. This is because it places the tire at a more optimal angle to the road, transmitting the forces through the vertical plane of the tire, rather than through a shear force across it. Another reason for negative camber is that a rubber tire tends to roll on itself while cornering. If the tire had zero camber, the inside edge of the contact patch would begin to lift off of the ground, thereby reducing the area of the contact patch. By applying negative camber, this effect is reduced, thereby maximizing the contact patch area. Note that this is only true for the outside tire during the turn; the inside tire would benefit most from positive camber."

 

so your telling me that owner is racing that car.

rightttt

 

I don't recall ever telling you that.

 

I mean, this is somewhat of an extreme example, but you've never seen or heard of this before?

 

it was sarcasm. but pretty much what Wiki said was all for getting the best traction for your car.

-for racing.

so in a way yes you kinda said that.

no i havnt seen it this extreme.

 

It is pretty common. People who have expensive tires only want to use one side of it at a time. When that side is worn, you swap it to the other side. Twice the tire.

 

You have an extreme knack for making yourself appear as a total douche bag.

 

it seems like one side of the tire would wear twice as fast O_o
