Going to be doing a lot of work to the suspension on the C5Z coming up.

I'll then be swinging in for a corner weight/alignment.
I am running Firestone Fire Hawk Wide Ovals as the car is a DD.

Anyone have any experience with how much neg camber they can handle but still give some good wear/mile ratings?

I am running the Firehawk Indy 500s (non-run flats) once i get my stroker built and up and running i am going to need to look into an alignment as well. All ears!

It's not the camber as much as the toe settings that will cause accelerated wear. I bought FWO tires for the street and they have not shown a lot of wear with -2 in front and -1 in rear.

Keep your front toe near zero and you will get good mileage from your tires.

I run the Firestones as my every day drive tires. Have -1.75 deg camber on front and -1.0 deg on the rear - Zero toe. The tires show virtually no wear after 5000 or so street miles. The actual tread width is about 1" less than the stock Goodyears the car came with ( even though sizing is the same ) so the camber is not that critical. The previous poster is correct in that out of alignment toe will eat the tires much faster than negative camber.

I also am running wide ovals and daily driving. -1.8 front camber and -1.0 rear camber. Zero toe.

I don't get much wear from street driving but man I need more neg camber up front as the outside inch of the front tires are wore down alot and the rest of the tire is fine. Rears are not that big a problem.

I need more neg camber...

2002 Z06 ....-2.3 front -1.6 rear....front total toe 0.00....Rear toe .12 I hear the W/O's are/have been discontinued. Wear just fair at those settings

I hope they are not discontinued! I like them as a DD tire.
