it is TOE being off

camber arms aren't fixing your problem

Solution:
Don't be a wimp
Throw away the crappy springs and camber arms you got on the car. I assume it's megan racing or some ebay brand of crap.
Get good coilovers
Get the SPL full setup
Get a proper wheel/tire combo
Take it to a performance place that does aftermarket suspension, preferably with experience on track cars and such

Slap all the parts on
Get an alignment. Camber as necessary to fit wheels, then minimal toe (if not zero outright)

Enjoy your Z that now looks and drives better and won't eat tires.

New guy just found out he needs $4k+ in parts to unfvck what the last owner did to his car.
