If you don't have any camber adjusters then what are you asking? The only thing you could change is your toe settings.

1/4 inch total toe out front, 0 toe rear, if you don't mind a 'little' wear on the inside edge of your tire. Some will say 1/4 inch toe out is too much, but I like it just fine.

Of course, this means you'll have to calculate back to degrees, and calculate PER SIDE, when you go to an alignment shop. I told a shop "xxx degrees total toe out in front" and they gave me twice that.

If you're going for 1/8th inch toe out, that's 1/16th per side, and about .15 degrees per side.
