Well on the rear it will cost you about $0.99 to fix it. Go to home depot and put a washer behind each bolt that holds the UCA to the frame.
You cannot adjust the front without a kit.

Re: cheap camber? (nota-eg)
I had some 17" rims with 40 tires and I was chopping the inside on the rear tires and almost nothing on the front ones...I just got some nippon f2 16" with Kumho 45...would the smaller tires have and added effect on camber angle being off????

No; but you absolutely MUST get an alignment. I'm running almost 3* of neg camber with no uneven wear. Get your toe set to 0.

Tires have nothing to do with your camber setting. With a larger sidewall, there is a bit more give, so the wear might not be as noticeable.
Camber does not wear tires, toe does.

the angle is still the same. you may see a slight difference with a larger, more flexible side wall on your 45 series tires though (vs the 40 series). Make sure you get the car aligned when you lower it though, to correct the toe.
Damn autoxer, just barely beat me to it
