More than likely, the camber isn't off. You should try having the toe set on an alignment rack unless you're just not happy with the ride height.

go to your local junkyard...they most likely have a bunch of ef's, da's that you can get springs from for probably about 10 bucks

not likely since the diameter of the sleeves and stock springs are probably not the same.
