my rear wheels seem to have, what i think would be, a negative camber when i have people in the back seat......)they tilt in at the wheel well) is this normal? Does it sound like I need new springs? right now its still stock......will putting 17's on affect this even more?

do you know what the average life of stock springs and shocks should be?

Before you go out and spend all that money, just take one of the back tires off and look for uneven wear. If the inside of the tire has less tread than the middle or outside, then spend money. I don't understand why you would be having any trouble with stock suspension anyway. Either that or just tell those people you drive around to get their own car, take out your back seat, and cut 30lbs of curb weight. j/k.
