Default Camber is f¥©<3d. HELP!!!!!

Ok I have a 91 civic si which is a hatch. The car had some 18 inch rims before I got it I took em off threw on some 14in steelies and now the front passanger tire has alot of positive camber(sticks out on top) so in an attemp to fix it I bought skunk 2 upper a arms but now I can get it straight if I move the ball joint all the way back, but I wanna **** my tires(negative camber) and I can only do it on the drivers side so I also bought the front lower control arm but I havent gotten em yet, I really dought it will fix the problem, so is there anything else that can cause this that I can change to fix. I have a b series swap in it, cut springs for now, and the skunk 2 uca's and bout to put new lca's. Please guys help.

Yeah I wanna get some good coilovers maybe k sport or tien but that should give it positive camber lowering gives it negative camber. And im gonna get it aligned but before I go spend all the money I wanna see if anyone knows if thats gonna fix it.

Cut srings are not good, get them replaced with something better, get coilovers and drop it where you want it and get it aligned.

1) Check to make sure nothing is bent. Put all pieces back to stock and take it and have it aligned.

2) Don't buy anything else until you find out the problem.

Basically, don't be an idiot. Get the problem fixed before you go trying stuff that you obviously have no idea about.

He's right the only thing you can adjust on a ef(ED) is toe(maybe caster),but not camber unless you have a camber kit on it.
