What is mean compensate ?

Compensation means to add road grip to the vehicle through tyres. When the vehicle is loaded the increase in weight decreases the preset camber from positive to zero. When there is min load the tyres are at an angle (the projected angle will resemble "V" when seen from to of the vehicle.

"compensate for wheels tilting OUTWARD due to the weight of the vehicle" should be the question.

I think it should be outward. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It should be a negative camber.

I thing Answer should be B (No). For Inward tilting it should be Negative camber.

A wheel will tend to tilt inward when it is loaded, but to counteract this tilting action positive camber will be given which will try to tilt wheel outward.

It is Only outward.

How is that tilting outward if the tyre tends to decrease angle with the ground towards inner side when loaded. It's is actually tilting inward.

Yes, I also think that the answer should be NO.
