Question Rear wheel camber?

Hey guys, so I've been question the past few days about the look of my rear wheels (I'm a new Z owner) and the are sticking out more at the bottom, like a slight slant, is this stock or has there been a camber kit installed? I figured stock wheels would be perfectly straight up and down but I don't know :P

thanks!

There is some negative camber set from the factory, -1.4° I believe. But it should be barley noticeable. Have any pics? Might want to go get an alignment to be sure it's not ruining your tires

car has a bit of camber in all 4 corners stock.

a bit of negative camber is good. that bit of camber makes the car handle better.

now massive amounts of negative camber is a different story. lets not go there lol
