Positive Camber

Positive camber is the outward tilt of the wheel from the true vertical position. Positive camber will wear tires on the outside edge. Vehicles will tend to pull to the side with the most positive (least negative) camber.
 

Neutral Camber

Camber is defined as the inward or outward tilt of the wheels from a true vertical, as seen from the front of the vehicle. If the wheel has excessive inward or outward tilt, tire wear will occur on the side to which the wheel is leaning. Camber is a wear angle but not as much as toe. Vehicles will tend to pull to the side with the most positive camber.
