The magnetic type that are supposed to clamp to the brake disc are pretty useless you have to be able measure the camber with the car sitting on
its' wheels in the normally loaded condition ---- much cheaper get a digital clinometer or digital spirit level off ebay. You can
even use an ordinary spirit level with a bit of ingenuity and some trigonometry.

The small digital inclinometers are magnetic as well and will go on the rear face of the brake disk with the wheels on the ground.
