well we are assuming that you have no roll or pull on your fenders/quarters...if you do then that makes a difference and also what size tires are you running...that makes a difference.....what offset wheel? that makes a difference....shit....what is the cars mileage? that makes a difference also

+1....many of these items are going to affect camber and tire wear...do you have adjustable upper control arms, adjustable rear arms?

There is no definitve answer to this question in the manner you asked it. Your post is lacking way to much info, and the look your going for would help also.

OP exactly like everyone said, now if you posted something like:
hey vadriven,
I have a 91 nissan 240sx
on d2 rs coilovers, megan rucas, front, rear tension rods, rear traction rods, s14 inner tie rods, megan outter ride end, 95k on the odometer, w diamond racing wheels 15x8 wrapped w 205/50/15's w a 3.5" back spacing, the frame rail is around 3.25" off the ground and I dont mid getting my fenders rolled if needed. But I was wondering, what should I set my camber too?


I bet you would have got a pretty close replay to what you where looking for.

Street car? Track car? Camber can be used to accomodate fit, tire wear or to gain maximum cornering performance, so there is no overall "perfect" #. How you drive/use the car plays heavily into the equation.
