That seems... strange.  At least by the image provided. They induce an angle 
in the tire (camber) BUT, the tire rides flat (as if there was zero camber). 
So, when the car corners the forces would seem to negate the 'built in" 
camber just like a regular tire.  In fact as the car corners it seems the 
car would ride up on the outer part of the tire and increase the speed at 
which it would loose grip

 If the point of negative camber is a tire level with the road surface - 
while cornering, it seems this idea is reinventing the wheel in circular 
reasoning.  Am I missing something?
