Default IS500 Alignment

So I got new tires a few weeks back and wanted to get an alignment... long story short, the shop thinks one of the swift springs is collapsing or bowing... he took pics which I am attaching.. and you can see the difference on the LCA bushing...

Ive attached the print out from the alignment shop too.. Any opinions are welcomed LOL

Is the strut bent? Just the spring sitting wonky won’t cause that much camber difference

Yeah something is not right with your suspension, the camber is way off. Compare with this other guy's swift springs alignment
