I guess it is? I just love the look of neg. camber, so i posted pictures with it. I know a lot of people like the look, so i suppose it gets the attention of some that wouldn't look before. Plus, neg. camber will increase the handling so its functional as well.. Of course, if you are running 6degree i don't see that helping much. lol

Oh, I know what a little bit of negative camber will do for handling (lol, I have 2 grand worth of suspension mods on my Civic), but I've seen some pretty extreme cases on this forum. Guess everybody has lots of money to buy new tires. :D
camber doesn't kill tires, toe does.
Toe and camber both kills tires. 1-2degree camber is going to decrease tire life too drastically, if any. But if you have say 4 degree it will definitely kill the tires fast.

I took pictures of both. The picture where it shows a little tire and scionlife sticker is the front, then the one where theres most camber is the rear. Dropping your car will cause neg. camber depending on how drastic the drop is. You can also get camber plates and adjust from 1-6degree camber.

EDIT: Thank you!
