In this case, larger wheel side-slip angles are needed to achieve steady-state cornering at the same radius and speed as when camber change is not considered. Positive camber angles produce a camber thrust that acts in the same direction as the centrifugal force. In steady-state cornering, the camber thrust becomes one of the forces that balances the centrifugal force at the C.G.
This is proportional to the camber angle, as described in Chapter 2. In either case, the camber change results in a force that acts in the lateral direction (camber thrust). Here, it is assumed the first case gives positive camber change, and the second gives a negative camber change. The wheel camber could occur in either the same or the opposite direction to the roll direction, as described in Section 6.2.3.
