Road Noise (positive camber?)

Has anyone found the magic key to fixing the road noise problem? Any luck with adding more positive Camber to front wheels?

what tires are you using? There is no way to dial in positive camber on the front without aftermarket adjustable a-arms

Avoiding directional tread tires and flip rotate tires to reverse wear heel toe feathering.

yea I was hoping some one had front camber kits and found the correct amount of camber to add. These cars keep eating up tires even if you keep them in check. The car has too much negative camber from the dealer for track driving. That and the suspention oscillation on the tire causes the feathering of the tire. If any one has added positive camber please share

ebay has a few kits for front and rear camber adjustment. Anyone think they are worth it? The front kit cost like 350 on ebay. And the rear you can get for under a hundo.

he might be refering to tires being worn out faster because of negative camber resulting in more road noise coming through the worn out tires. just my 2 pennies!
