Default Skunk 2 troubles....

I'm going to make this as short and as possible

My setup: 90 civic lx sedan, Skunk2 Pro-s coilover setup( coilovers + shocks) Skunk 2 front camber kit. wheels 15X8 equips +10 offset

Ok, so I want to keep the car as low as it sits now and still be able to tuck these wheels under the fender wells. I installed the front camber kit and adjusted it as negatively as possible but for some reason it actually RAISED the front end of my car about .5"-1.0" and now I hear this knocking noise comming from the front whenever I drive, and the front suspension feels extremely tight! All I did was put the camber kit on WTF!!! Can somebody tell me what I did wrong or if there are any solutions so that I can keep my car slammed and still tuck these wheels underneath....Any help will be greatly appreciated!

do you have a picture? those wheels are pretty wide to try and "tuck". I have 15x7 and even those stick out of the fender a bit.

Well I'm sorry it took so long but here's some pics...

Here's how the car sits now, yes I know it's to low in the rear but the front is what I'm worried about now...


the kit


Installed...


and here's the height in the front...


I hate to admit it but I think my A-arms are hitting
