I've been racing for over twenty years. I got up under the car to check the negative camber and found out there is no adjustment for the camber at all. I called a very good dealer in my area and not the dealer I bought the car from and the smart rep told me the same thing. There is no adjustment for the camber in the rear. The only adjustment on the car is in the front end.

rear (All 450, 451 & 452 chassis)
camber -2 deg 00' + or - 30'

front caster and camber can be adjusted slightly by loosening all 4 lower control arm bolts and sliding the whole assembly left/right forward back as needed (holes are enlarged to allow some movement)
Front toe is adjustable.

Rear is not adjustable at all
Are these the specs for a 2008 Fortwo (sold in America) Passion?
