if the tires are wearing on just the outside it is too much positive camber, too much toe would give them kind of a chopped feeling when you run your hand across the tire instead of a "smooth" feeling.

Well to continue the story
The front end was sagging, lots o neg camber, the toe was out of wack. I got 13x6.5? enki rims + dot legal slicks basically after, they didn't wear too bad.
Car was stolen & wrecked, story ends... lol this can be closed

So the tires just wearing down in the front, it goes pretty straight considering I've never used manual steering just on slanted streets it moves 
The outside of the tire is gone and hard, the insides are soft and lots of miles to go.
My dad told me rotating bad tires on the back (worn funky) can be dangerous on a rwd car and that rwd needs best in the back and fwd needs the best in the rear or something.
I'm thinking bout putting these old SA wheels on (Same as mine) the tires are newish but have not been driven on much in 3 years at least, they arnt cracking or anything... my front tires sidewall has cracks
I see a good bit of neg camber in the front, why would the outsides wear? I thought neg camber caused the insides to wear.
