Wheel camber on wheelhouse

[heat checker]

Building a wheelhouse and wondering what is an acceptable wheel camber for nice travel and tire wear? And how would one guage that? Should be around 2500 lbs if that has any bearing on it.

heat checker, Camber on a 'light' trailer (such as yours)can be anywhere from 0-6 degrees. The closer you are to 6*, the better the tracking and thus tire wear. For a heavier trailer, recommendations are in the 4-8 degree range. But...there @ 8* you're talking trailers like the dump-box trailers that are pulled behind 1 ton duallys. I'd suggest,once you have your house completed, take it to a alingment shop and have the camber set for the load. That way you won't be riding on the inside or outside edge of the tire. Phred52
