-11.5 camber.....say what?
Before you guys judge and be like "oh that's stupid", just remember everybody has their style and different taste! I'm at -11.5 Camber in the back and felt like sharing with my Acurazine family!

Looks good.
But I wouldnt have made an entire thread about it.
Looks like it was done for the reactions when you are begging for them.
Talk to some tire shops that have experience running really low camber and get your toe dialed in correctly. As others said you are going to wear through some tires quick with a normal alignment. Getting the toe just right will balance out the wear a little better.
Good luck!
Only other thing is if they are vossens Id hunt for another set. Just no a fan. Love that camber though!

Yea, I'm part of the camp that thinks it looks broken. I'm no suspension expert, but it certainly seems like that would put a lot of extra stress on components that aren't used to it.

It looks like you hit a curb. Is it really worth making the car unsafe with it's 2" contact patch which is practically on the sidewall to make the car look ugly? You do realize the load capacity is significantly reduced when you do that shit, right? It's not safe and it looks dumb.
You might as well stick some motorcycle tires on there that are actually meant to be used on their sides... I miss the days when the TL was new and the Civic crowd couldn't afford them.

I think its ugly especially with wheels/tires that narrow. If the wheels were wider it would look better. I know a few guys running camber like that but they have huge wheels 19x12 in the rear, not on a tl though of course.

I've seen these wheels on TL's before with normal camber, so the question is why are you running -11.5 degrees??
im all about this, yes its unsafe unpractical and eats tires but yes look for new wheels that are 11+

Is this real life?
I'm too curious. Is there any good excuse for doing this to your TL? I see this around on all kinds of terrible 4 bangers, but I have never heard that it was done "for looks". Does OP have any input as to why they would do this? Is this really for looks, or is there some misconstrued benefit we're not aware of?
