    Does anyone know how the camber settings work? What units is it mesured in?

    Units are always shown in the Tuning menu.


    Camber is a percentage. Negative camber makes the bottom of the wheel come out, and Positive camber the opposite.

    Thx for the fast answer, but why as a percentage, normally its mesured in ° angle isnt it?

    What that setting does is changing a beam lenght.
    To show the angle, we will need to calculate it, and that cannot be done until you apply the setting.

    So showing a % is a more reachable solution.

    Wouldn't it be possible to use the advanced wheel debug, and set camber to 100%, then set maxDis to that angle?

    No because if you change the caster, the base position of camber will change, and so on. When you tune a real car you just turn the screws which set lengths or angles indirectly, and watch the alignment over time, same kinda thing here. You can find the alignment debug UI app to watch the changes.
