Has anyone here increased their camber to a noticeable amount of difference visually without increasing alot of inside tire wear? I'd like to add camber to my rear wheels for the look, but not wanting to substantially increase tire wear. Wondering if that's possible. Thanks

This is impossible. Camber is the angle based off of the vertical axis of the car while looking at it from the rear or front. The more you increase the angle, the less patch of tire will be touching the ground, and that will wear that crazy. If you want to minimize your overall tire wear, making sure the rest of your alignment angles (caster, toe, etc) are spot on.

Although, I'm crazy tired, and there may be some magic trick, I keep telling myself there must be, but at the same time, I know enough geometry that, well, thats impossible,

Tire wear is DIRECTLY affected by the camber angle. What you are asking is not possible. You are going to have signicant wear by increasing the camber to a noticable amount. Gotta pay to play.

Thanks for the info guys.

also, why would you increase camber JUST for looks? if you have no need for more camber (to get better fitment or the like) then it's going to look REALLY stupid...

this is not possible
you could get a little more wear out of your tires if you
A have them flipped. (directional's would need to swap sides and A non asymmetrical it is not possible) then you would get half of a full tire life vs just a quarter.
B max out/over inflate you air pressure. when you over inflate a tire it tends to stretch like a balloon. so the middle of the tire will stretch out from the wheel. Doing this will move the pressure asserted to the center of the tire and less to the inside edge.
