Excessive negative camber

I've got a 2006 Corolla, and the right rear wheel has too much negative camber - the tire is wearing fast on the inside. I've looked, and there doesn't seem to be a way to adjust the camber. What am I missing?

When I went to get my 05 corolla S alined they told me my camber was a little off too. Said they would have to get shims to adjust it. Since mine was off so little i just let it be.

Spec is -1 to -2 degrees for rear camber.
