Negative camber improves grip in cornering. It allows more rubber to come into contact with the street when turning.

It looks good too.

Can anyone tell me why Datoaster made a deal to trade grills and money with me,....take both and not keep his end of the bargain???? Is it because he is a lire and a cheat

Ooo I am sorry,is this off subject ? If this is off subject it is becouase he will not write me back. Ask him how he got that stock grill in the picture of this thread...or that black leather steering wheel?

That kind of negative camber is great if you plan on driving on your doors.

^ The xB handles quite well, and lots of people autocross them...

Now -5 deg is a bit much and really only for looks, but yea.
