The track days have destroyed the outsides of tires due to the fact that we can't acheive better negative camber. Can someone please make an adjustable upper control arm made, other than Boomgear, which are quite expensive, especially with tariffs so we can dial in more negative camber.
I have 3 more track days and will switch to slocks next year as long as the rear parking system problem is solved by Kitkat so I can go to 18 inch wheels.
Can I swith left to right? Has anyone done this, and is it a good idea?

As far as I know they are asymmetrical not directional. So you can switch them, but you have to flip the tyre on the rim instead of just swapping the wheels. Meaning inside stays inside, outside stays outside.
I guess you could do this if you run a lot on a track in the same direction.
Please fact check this, I didn't look up technical details

After looking at the picture of the tire, Dismounting & remounting left to right doesn't make sense since the outside pattern is different than inside pattern of tread. Agreed?
 
How much are boomgear control arms?
 
Sure you can switch left to right. They have inside/outside but not a direction that they have to rotate in. Actually, if you find a small tire shop, you can also turn them inside out and on a dry track really not notice a difference.
 
I agree with Crainp. If it's a dry track, you won't have any issues swapping them around as the contact patches remain the same even if the tread pattern is reversed.

I would agree. It looks like you can swap the wheels left to right without dismounting them. It *might* help out even wear if your commute or track has more left handers than right handers or vice versa. Not as good as swapping front to back which you can't do in our case since tires are totally different.

If anyone does this, let us know if it triggers any TPMS errors. Not sure if swapping from left to right would mess with the base measurements it uses as a reference. Just a thought...
