Need help with CAMBER DEGREE please (pics included)
Hi guys,
When I go to get my alignment dialed in, I'd like to have a number in mind to tell them to start with camber-wise.
My goal is to line up the top of the wheel in a line from the fender lip.
(goal is to look similar to this in the front and rear, how the lip isn't like, an inch off the fender, but sits more in line with it)

See my car pics below, to achieve that look, should I do...
Front: -2
Rear: -2.5
??
Thanks,
-chris

hard to tell. lip appears to be ~15mm past the fender which equates to 3* of camber. I would tell them to start with -2.5* more than whatever the car currently sits at, check it after the initial adjustment and have them add more if needed. you want it to appear flush, no poke at all from the lip of the wheel.
where are you going for alignment? most shops allow you to watch the adjustments their making and will allow you to decide where to set the degree specs. I would stand 5 ft behind the car and tell them to add camber until your flush look is to your liking.
this is the look you're looking for?

Wait, are you going for that broken axle look? If not your wheels are already stickin out too much to achieve that look. My car looks like the top pic but with slightly more wheel gap (I'm only lowered 1.2").
Ive got 25mm spacers in back 20mm front and:
Front camber: -0.8
Rear: -1.4
