the only reason to run that much camber is for wheel clearance issues, even if you have a corner-balanced and aggressive track setup.

I guess I am the only one that really doesn't like SIN3's g35. I've seen that car in person at cars and coffee, and even in the pictures I don't like it. I just think that it doesn't look like it was done for function. It looks like bling on a rappers car. I like aggressive negative camber on cars, but when it looks like it was done to be faster on the track. I dunno to each his own.

^^ considering the wheels are correctly sized, and that they are not "dub style" cheap ass chrome wheels from sears or schucks, theres not way in hell i would call that "rapper style".

completely polished wheels aren't something i'd put on my car unless it were an anodized color, but still, his car is mad proper.

"when it looks like it was done to be faster" is totally subjective. different wheel setups require different amounts of camber to be functional, and tires also come into the equation, as well as shock rebound/dampening.

noone is going to argue that his car is too low to drive at the track, but that's the beauty of the adjustable coilover. a good 20 minutes or less, and he can have his G track ready if he chooses to... and i bet those wheels would perform very well at the track... maybe better with some 255/65's, but that's why people usually have track wheels and street wheels.

/rant.

I think camber is sick too but it looks dumb with stock or high offset wheels. And also my s2000 was slammed as well as my previous cars.

I think camber is dumb on stock looking wheels, Makes it looks like it was hit from the side.
