negative front camber

Has anyone come up with a fix for the front camber?
I had lowered my car but changed springs again because my tires only lasted 14k miles. My latest thought runs something along the lines of trying to find a strut from something else that will fit and give me a way to adjust alignment.
I really think my car would look nice with the new wheels if it was lowered again.

Camber bolts? You put them in your glove box, because that's the only place it'll fit permanently.

Well, that or a trash can... ;-)

So is there no hope for front end?
Should I just resort to buying cheap tires so it won't matter?
What about the idea of modifying a strut from another vehicle?
C'mon someone throw me a line here.
The only thing I don't like about this car is this alignment problem and I don't want to have to give it up.

I suggest you get an alignment. I have had tires that I just had installed about 4k ago, and guess what? Yup, cupped. Showing threads of the tire.

So if you figure it out, let me know. I lowered my car, but never got an alignment (due to various reasons) so I knew it was going to happen, just not how quick. When I replace the front tires again(soon) I'll be sure to do that.

Other than that, I don't think there is much you can do.
