                    Camber is the degree of angle from the vertical axis. If you look at the rear of the vehicle the wheel looks to have positive camber as the wheel is angled with the top side out and the bottom side closer to the car. Negative camber usually occurs by simply lowering the car. Commonly referred to e30s and stickers were also made for this "down n out". Caster is the alignment of the wheel if you look at the side of the car and usually with e36 parts the wheel isn't centered in the wheel well, but pushed further back towards the rear of the fender.

                      Nice car, I bet its fast. Wheels make it look like you've got a lift.

                              Ignorance is bliss, whats it like being so clueless? Those oversize tires make the car look like its standing on its tippy toes! ... and it looks like you have positive camber front and rear! Put the stock suspension/wheels/tires back on before you kill us all!
