Default can one tire lean in more then the other?

im looking at my sp 600 and the left front rim looks like its leaning in,the right one looks straight,so i look in my mant man and it says no adjustment for the camber . so my question is is it possable for the the tires to lean in and is there any way to adjust them?
any advice would be great
thanks bigrigins

there isnt any adjustment for the camber, polaris has a slight negative camber on all there machine for better handling in corners, if u turn your wheels left then right a few times it may go back to normal

Polaris500HO4x4 is right, there is no camber adjustment. If this is indeed the case with your machine, where the camber is off, then check for bent parts, etc.

Also, Toe is adjustable, look at the Owners manual, I believe the toe adjustment is in there using a string around the machine.

One thing that some people mistake is not putting the handlebars/tires pointing perfectly forward, if off slightly you will show a different camber from side-to-side.

Also make sure that your ball joints aren't worn.
