Default HELP REAR TOE!!!

WHat the hell would cause rear toe on a 4th gen prelude? I installed my camber kit than took it to the damn alignment shop and they adjusted camber but my rear toe is fucked. Like more that 3 degrees out. I dont know if they fucked it up or not. I then took it to firestone and they couldnt do anything for me. Supposely they said that the left control arm looks bent?? but both sides has toe? I dont knoe whats gone wrong. All i knoe is if i hit over 40 mph now i start fish tailin and losing control. THis is a nightmare. Almost killed my girlfriend and I. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

NOte if its relevant. My cars on 17's and huggin the tires. Pretty low. Ill probably raise it if it helps.

I assume the shop is telling you that its not within the range of adjustment. A good alignment shop should be able to tell you the toe specs for left side , right side and the total. If most of it is on one side start looking for something bent.

Since its highly unlikely that both sides would get damaged the same, if left and right are about equal the problem is probably in the lowering or camber kit.

Wheel/tire size should have nothing to do with it.
