at first I assumed it must be hydraulic... so the could adjust them on the fly and put em back to normal for actual driving.... but it looks like the wheels wouldnt fit anyway....
slight chance it could be..... but itd be bloody tight !

Its sort of the point of this "style". Get bigger wheels to fit by adding a little camber. This is a parody really.
Proper tuners make the wheels fit the car, VIP style is adding camber.

Incorrect, partially. But thanks for the Waynes World-esque language lesson.
Vip - or Bippu cars do in fact feature lots of negative camber.
Vip - or Bippu cars do in fact feature lots of negative camber.
QuoteCars associated with VIP (bippu) style usually have common characteristics; such as large diameter rims (usually broad faced designs) with low offsets that sit flush with the fender, exhausts that stick out past the rear bumper (although not so much emphasized these days), a full bodykit or lip kit, glossy paint and a lowered ride height. It is not uncommon to see extremly negative camber on many VIP style cars. Traditional colors of VIP Style cars are usually black, white, grey and silver.Wiki for ease.

the funny thing is, its got directional tyres, but the contact patch is nowhere near the directional bit. they could just turn the tyres around when one side is worn and it wouldnt make any difference
