Question Toe out of wack need some help please!

I noticed my rear left rear tire was wearing on the inside so I took the G to get and alignment and they told me that either the control arm or the sub frame might be bent, because they could not get the toe to spec.

My car is not lowered, but I do not have the stock wheels. I am actually running 350z wheels with 285s on the rear, not sure of the width of the actual wheel, please excuse my ignorance. ( I didn't put the Z wheels on they were on when I bought the G)

What I do I need to do to get my toe back in spec? I have done some research but I am still kind of at loss at what I need to do. Do I need to buy a new traction arms? I was looking at either the Stillen or Kinetix, rear toe arms, also what about the STA Toe bolts? I am a little strapped for cash so if I would like to go the cheapest route possible. I really dont want to replace the subframe the dealer told me they couldnt tell if it was actually bent or not, and thats expensive as hell.

Im pretty new to all this and I don't have much free time, does anyone have any pics or diagrams of how the suspension on the G works?

Thanks for any help.

If the alignment does not adjust to nominal something is bent or the bushings in arms/hubs are worn.

I have seen camber problems from bent subframe attachment tabs, usually temporarily fixed with new camber arm bushings [until they wear].

Unfortunately a 1/16" here and their will cause problems.
