ok, assume the | / and \ are the wheels with the top of the line being the top of the wheel.

0 everything when straight = | |

negative camber when wheels straight = / \

postitive caster and 0 camber when straight = | |

0 camber and positive caster when turning right / / - so you can see the car turns into the corner so to say

0 camber and positive caster when turning left \ \

positive camber and positive caster when turning right = / |

above turning left = | \

so as you can see (hopefully) driving straight with negative camber will wear the inside of your tyres.

never go negative caster. makes the car very squirmish

anyway, does that make sense?
