Might need to straighten your chassis, or some bent part of your control arm/knuckle/etc... If you want more than 1 degree camber corrected, you can get Ingalls at mmrusa.com
I had a severe camber problem when my car was lowered, the alignment shop I went to didn't install a camber kit in my car though, they welded the points to correct it.

$60 bucks because of my extreme camber, normally they would charge $30 for a regular one, but because of the welds...
Name of the place is Clarence Brown Alignment Services. They take appointments only. Lemme know if you want their address/phone #.

dude, jaws, i've heard of agressive driving, but wtf with your sig. apparently, you drive your tib a little too hard. basically, WAY BEYOND AGGRESIVE. i mean, you don't have a link, so i don't know what you've done to it, like NAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWZZZZZZZZZZZZ or turbo, but i'm assuming whatever you've done, is just a bit too far without more planning to have all of those problems. then, since you hit a tree wink , learn about weight transfer before you take corners too hard. ok, i just fell off of my high horse, so i don't have too much more to say. i know jaws has done a lot, but dood, you've also fukd up a lot, given your sig.

Try Moog Chassis Parts. Cost should be around 13.00 per kit (side).

Tiburon 97-01
Front camber kit
-1 1/4 to +1 1/4
part # k9757
one kit per side

Rear camber kit
-1 1/4 to +1 1/4
part # k9757
one kit per side
