The camber is getting worse now and I don't know much about suspension so I have pics and want to know if something doesn't look right.

is it safe to drive? I have to drive 120km to have my buddy look at it, and I'm supposed to be driving a total of 500km this weekend.
 


it's noticeably more slanted than the left side

and no it wasn't loose

more pics after I jacked it up

when I put the wheel back on and put the car back down, it looked better. I took it for a drive and now it sits exactly the same as it did before -.-
 


You get negative (I believe that's negative) chamber when either your strut tower's rust out, or your springs are overly worn. How old are your springs and struts?!

And it's not an alignment issue, our cars have no way to adjust that much chamber from factory, people who buy aftermarket struts and springs sometimes buy chamber bolts to enable chamber adjustments.
 


You can try just replacing that spring if you're tight on money, but you might be looking at replacing at least the rear struts and springs, my rear passenger side strut is going and my car's an 05 :/
