I can understand why more camber is required when the suspension compresses, it is to counter the effect of body roll. To keep the tire as perpendicular as possible (or with some negative camber) relative to the road even as the body rolls.
However, from the latest info I have read, toe is better when kept constant throughout the suspension travel. Toe changes can make the car's behaviour less predictable. This is contrary to my original intuition, so will try to dig some more  . |
My original post was incorrectly worded...fixed.
