Default camber on a 00 si

hey guys i have a question. i have a 00 si and i put two washers for the rear camber and it still looks like it has a lot of negative camber. i only have about an 1.75 drop. can it be that my LCA is bent?
or should i just put one more washer on each side?
thnx for the help guys.

you also have to buy longer bolts, not just washers. i had the rear camber trick on my car and the tires were perfectly straight

It will still have a little camber no matter what you do.

I have my car dropped around 3" and I did the two washers trick. It helped out quite a bit, but it still isn't perfect. However, it is corrected enough to where you won't see significant tire wear. I would be more worried about the front camber. All of your is coming from the front of the car. Also, make sure your alignment and toe are back to factory setttings.
