#1: Wheel Camber Q Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Tue Feb 21, 2012 12:03 pm ---- As standard should the rear wheels on a 206 have any camber on them?
I have noticed that my rear axel shows a very slight negative camber and was wondering if this is normal or not?
Thanks

He ended up having to replace the whole rear beam which can be costly

Mine will have about 7 degrees, as im just that cool
#5: Re: Wheel Camber Q Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Tue Feb 21, 2012 2:51 pm ---- Anyone else got any input? I basically just want to know if having a very slight negative camber is standard or if the axel is becoming worn Last edited by MrrNoName on Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:15 pm; edited 1 time in total

#8: Re: Wheel Camber Q Author: borinous, Location: EssexPosted: Wed Feb 22, 2012 6:00 am ---- a small amount of negative camber is probally usual. Negative camber helps the tyres grib better in the corners. This negative camber will increase if the car is lowered.
If its an excessive amount and you are getting uneven wear on your tyres i would say there was an issue with your beam. if your not then carry on as normal.
