Hey Darren, I thought that suppose to be our secret, yes I have been running 10 degree camber in the back, and would I suggest to anyone after I took my tires out, NO. But I’m taking them off and will go with no camber, negative cambers are getting played out, I mean I was the one who brought these plates to US (for scions) and I have sold over 30 sets but I don’t get why people put spacer and shims and then add negative camber, I have ran 3, 5, 10 degree plates, and after 5 degree all of the kits comes with toe correction, it suppose to help the tire wear but I’m not sure about doubling the life, as Darren said my 18" tires were bold after something close to 1500 miles, I mean not that bad but very noticeable compare to rest of the tires. I could see someone who has some 9” or + wide wheels, or even 8” wheels with very low offset runs camber plates other than that some fender rolling should do trick and you save your tires and some cash, just my 2cent, JDMP

I know of some rear camber plates/shims that will have toe correction hopefully by the end of the year. And they are not from Van. They will be produced locally on a CnC machine and the R&D is almost finished.
