I noticed yesterday that my left front wheel has significantly more negative camber than the right. Do they all do that or should I get it checked? I just had the front tires replaced so it is possible something was tweaked in the process.
Thanks

My 2012 chassis was the same and there's no adjustment with the standard setup. I've recently fitted the Empire adjustable top wishbones (now sold by Krazy Horse) which has sorted out the problem.

Just to add to what Planenut has said , check the chassis as i found that the camber being different on one side to the other was the first sign of the chassis cracking ( top inner wishbone mount) on my 2012 car

Thanks all. The car has had a replacement chassis so it should be ok but will check anyway.

Same here, very crooked from the factory - got the Empire kit and solved it. Is the Empire Kit just for adjusting camber? Primary purpose is to bring top wishbone pivot in line with track rods to further reduce bump steer. This makes for unequal length wishbones providing a desirable increase in negative camber as suspension compressses under heavy cornering to maintain tyre contact patch. As each leg of top wishbone is adjustable this allows for camber and castor adjustment.
