Yea you defnitely have negative camber, you need to get your car alligned. Not sure on the price tho, i doubt it will be expensive.

Is it on the front on only or all four tires. Alignment could solve the problem but it also could be worn out struts.
Alignment should run around $65

you will generally run into about 45 bucks for a rear WHelel drive and 55 fr a front wheel drive and 65 for an AWD vehicle. also it could be your tire pressure as well. but then i think it would be i the outsides of the tires. and it could also be that you don't rotate and balance your tires as oft as ye should.

its a camber problem. civics dont have any adjustment for camber stock, so you need to buy camber kits. you can also just get the toe set at 0 and it will help a lot, but a camber kit will help it even more. and i mean 0, not "in spec"
