Regrettably, negative camber generates what is referred to as camber thrust. When both tires are angled negatively they push against each other, which is fine as long as both tires are in contact with the road surface.
Camber Angle Camber (or camber angle) is the angle of the tire from zero degrees (meaning straight up and down) when viewed from the front of the vehicle. If the bottom of the tire is further out than the top of the tire, this is known as Negative Camber Angle. And if the top of the tire is further out than the bottom, this is known as Positive Camber Angle. Negative Camber Angle Negative Camber is typically used for road racing and circle track racing vehicles. Because of the severe side loading of tire, the tire deforms and typically more heavily loads the outside edge of the tire than the inside edge. See picture.
