need help with my tein flex please!!!

hey guys just installed my flex, was a pretty easy installation. But i need help with something. Both the front and rear have about a finger's gap between the fender and the tire...the front rims's camber is perfect, but the rear camber looks like a honda on chopped springs. the top of the rear rim is way further in then the bottom. I dont know how to fix it! I know these are 2 way adjustable(adjust the part that holds the spring and ALSO adjust the whole threded body itself) i have tried different cominations of moving the whole body higher, spring lower. then trying it with the body lower and raising the spring part. Am i a dumba** or does anyone know what im doing wrong..if they can even understand this. lol Also, when the car is up on jacks, rims off. IS IT BAD if the spring is "floating" i.e i can move it around, its not tight beween the pillowball and the adjuster rings? THanks alot!

Yes what you are explaining is negative camber It is not adjustable on the rear coilovers

The camber adjustment is on the car itself.
