Like the first or second week I got my car I let my friend drive it(weak moment). He was turning out on to the main street and took the corner too sharp and the frount wheel and the back wheel hit the curb. He said he would pay for it to get fixed. I had a bump in on the frount tire and I got a new set and got them alined. The frount of the back passanger wheel is angled twards the car. Is their a way to ajust the camber of it to get it back so I can take it to a alinment shop and do a 4 wheel alinment? I already too it too one for the frount wheels, they said that I should probly look at it.

Are you sure it's not the normal camber of the vehicle. Are both rear tires the same? I am only asking because the tilt is normal for the rear wheels. The top of the rear wheels should be tilted inward towards the car. I see that you said that the front of the back passinger is tilted inward...so you probably want to have that looked at.

ya he did explain this but this particular fix of the problem wasn't driven into...
something is bent up in there, you just have to find out what. i'm not sure if you are working with a race shop or anything or have a local mechanic familiar with suspension, but have them check it out.

There might be a way to adjust rear tire angles, but what would you adjust it to? How do you know you'll even go the right direction toward more aligned? You can't align a vehicle without an alignment machine or the right tools. Just take it in, and they will replace any broken parts, align all 4 wheels and make sure it's all fine.
