GasMan Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Quick question. How much front negative camber do I need for these tyres? Thanks. Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted April 15, 2014 Leadership Team Share Posted April 15, 2014 Do they also need more on the rear than the usual 1½ degree ears? Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendennis Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Race, track or road? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GasMan Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Track Days and Road use but I have CR500 for road as well. Do I need to compromise between the 2 different types? Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendennis Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 In theory yes, but that's not practical is it. So your probably be okay with 2.5 front and 1.5 rear. I'm a racer using these, have 3.5 front and 2 rear, and looking to try 4 on the front but trust me that's not a setting that's relevant to what your looking at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GasMan Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Thanks Guys have gone with -2.75 at the front. Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark w Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 What toe out are people using with 3 degrees negative ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 There's so much neggy camber on mine that the wheels are almost horizontal! Gonna get them swapped across soon as they are wearing the inside part of what little tread they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark w Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Quoting badger: There's so much neggy camber on mine that the wheels are almost horizontal! Gonna get them swapped across soon as they are wearing the inside part of what little tread they have. Exactly my point David . I suspect your 620 has been set up like mine .3.5 degrees negative , slightly toe out I am going to try winding that back to 2.75 negative and see how that feels .

badger Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I think we have the "Jon Barnes" set-up. I probably won't be able to tell the difference anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendennis Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 IIRC Caterham found on their R600 that 4.5 - 5 degrees got the fronts working. However, Avon realised this is excessive for the general public so they redesigned the front tyre, that's why it's construction/compound has changed from the 2013 tyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
