Default Camber?

Can a wheel alignment adjust rear camber on a 99 SI?.. It's at stock ride height, yet i'm seeing camber where on the insides of the tires.

no, factory suspension is set at that with no camber adjustment. on a factory suspension, you shouldn't need any camber adjustment unless it has been modified or damage due to some sort of accident.

are you sure what you are seeing is camber and not toe?

Not sure; all I can see is the wheels slant outward a bit (not very noticeable even) and the insides of the tires are worn are significantly more than the rest of the tire.

if you are sitting on a stock suspension and the car was never in a accident (to your knowledge), then i would say you are looking a toe. they can almost look the same if it's not that bad, especially the rear tires.

Get your suspension checked at a shop and get an alignment at the same time.
