theres no way you can say camber doesnt help in handling....yes that one picture stated earlyer is just stupid camber all together and yes dragging your ass on the ground is dumb especially if you live in richmond but saying that having your shit slammed with some camber is gonna ruin your handling is an equally stupid remark.
run 2 identical cars on the same track one at stock height and camber one slammed with moderate camber and see who handles better.
as for exact numbers on my setup i couldnt tell ya because i have a very simple set up, but i can tell you whats under there
ksport full coilover kit with damper adjust more so on the stiff side, i picked up the car slammed and raised it 2 inches due to it being a horrible compfort issue in down town richmond
front and rear strut bars
blox LCA
anti sway bars
and a few odds an ends in the shed uninstalled
not much i know but its all i need being a daily driven car, but i still think the statement of slammed cars cant handle is less than accurate simply because of the lower center of gravity in comparison to a car that has a higher stance. body roll....come on
and camber helps in cornering theres no ifs ands or buts about it. i do agree that outrageous camber (like that infiniti) is just bad but you cant disregaurd the benefits.
we can argue this forever and not really get anywhere but if you line my car up with an identicle vehicle at stock hight camber...etc etc etc. i will out handle it, if you wanan stand around and talk suspensions one day im cool with that but just dont write off slammed cars when it comes to handling because theres tastefully lowering your car and then there rediculous
There is more to it than that. A car that has optimum track results has the perfect combination of spring rate, ride height, tire width, suspension aid stiffness, and of course, power. You can't simply lower your car and expect any results out of it, and it can actually become worse than stock if you do it wrong.
