8° c hubs and knuckles

8° is the caster or kingpin inclination. these are adjustable BTW.
I personally prefer more caster over less. Having more caster can aid in turning a little sharper and in cresting obstacles (while turning) as it allows you to use the sidewall of the tire a bit more.

The 8° hubs I've seen are for camber, not caster.
In theory it would be good for high speed handling in turns. I've only seen them on a few occasions so I'm not sure how many people actually use them, or real world if they help handling.

Thats not the case with the bully II
My Bully II has them
Wheels will tilt over when turning. C hub is slotted so it can be clocked (circled in red)

My bad. I read the question and was thinking of these.
