    Even if they are, the car, as a whole, looks good.

    And the way to gain negative camber in the rear is rather dodgey, due to the torsion rear bar our car has.
    Yeah, that's why I suggested thinner rims with more offset rather than wider rims with less, just to create a bit more of an illusion, you know? And I just realized the lack of camber for torsion beams, silly me.

    Just re-read the the thread, in retrospect, negative offset is probably a bad idea at x7/8.
