When camber specifications are determined during the design stage, a number of factors are taken into account. The engineers account for the fact that wheel alignment specifications used by alignment technicians are for a vehicle that is not moving. On many vehicles, camber changes with different road speeds. This is because aerodynamic forces cause a change in riding height from the height of a vehicle at rest. Because of this, riding height should be checked and problems corrected before setting camber. Camber specs are set so that when a vehicle is at highway speed, the camber is at the optimal setting for minimum tire wear. For many years the trend has been to set the camber from zero to slightly positive to offset vehicle loading, however the current trend is to slightly negative settings to increase vehicle stability and improve handling.

How do you change the camber of a Volvo?

The only time you change the camber on your car is if you alter the suspension. For example if you lower your car then the wheel will tilt in and you buy new bolts or shims to adjust the camber so your tire will be straight up and down. You will need air tools to do this and a alignment machine. Alignment machines will go into tenths of a number to make sure it is accurate.
