OK, Q to those of you here who had camber done themselves.
Anywhere I looked, camber gauge is set on rotor, with rotor being locked to the hub with whatever. Lug nuts or else, so that it sits flush.
Of course, vehicle is up on a lift and wheels off. Camber is set and everything tightened.
I had this done several times on my Camry by now, with camber bolts, as Toyota wisely did no provisions for camber adjustments.
Thing is, according to spec, camber is "negative 0". SO I have it all set nice and neat with gauge on secured rotor, put everything back together - and voila, end up with about 4 degrees negative camber on wheels with car sitting on the floor.
Why? Problem is, I do not have a gauge that can be set on the rim itself and my lift will not permit me to adjust camber with wheels on, as they are not supported when car is lifted up.
I sort of have to fudge it to slightly positive camber based on rotor position to end up with slightly negative camber with wheels on the ground. And it's guesswork.
