I'm planning on getting some deep dish wheels 9x15 and I was wondering how I would get some nice camber on the rear wheels but I don't know where to start.

Camber slims? (not sure if they do slims for an 02 vtr).
Any downsides?

It's my daily car so I don't really what to have lots of problems.

Did not really understand what you where asking but if your are more camber there is no easy way to do it. The only options I have seen are purpose built rear suspension for motorsport application. If your willing to spend the cash some one could probably fabricate you some trailing arms up. But generally road cars don't run much camber because it just eats tyres.

stance innit!!!

rear camber = nackard rear axel, you could pull it apart and wreck the barings giving you play in the back axel but it will fail mot

no way of adjusting the camber on a rear beam, unless you want to buy a pair of custom bent rear stub axles, give maximum camber, you can always do your own the same by kerbing the back end really hard.

the way the rear is setup, you cant have camber.

Cars like the renault clio can as the axle does not run through the trailing arm, but the saxo is more tricky. You could re bore the trailing arm and run a larger stub axle but it would be expensive and hardly worth the costs.
