If you're a Pirelli World Challenge fan, you might notice that there is a well funded team racing Kia Optimas (FWD, 4 door sedans) and they run stupid rear cambers like the Honda. If I had to guess, I'd say it was to keep most of the rear tire off the ground to allow better rotation in turns (it being front-heavy and FWD). It looks moronic. But maybe that's what the "stance" guys are emulating. (Not.)

I wonder how often he has to get those rear tires flipped. monthly? that has to chew through the inside shoulder in no time.

I think he just readjusts to an equal amount of positive camber.

Is that what the baby is saying, or the Strip Mall Samurai? It works either way.
