What factors go into fixing include angle/camber and castor?

I'm in serious need for help by someone experienced with alignment issues.

I got an alignment done on my 2002 Civic Hatchback (here is france) and I have some strange values for include angle and castor. They say they have no way to adjust those and I'm wondering if something may need repairing.The left column has the tolerable norms. The middle is before the alignment and the right is after. The terms are the following:
  • CARROSSAGE = camber
  • CHASSE = caster
  • INCLIN. PIVOT = Steering Axis Inclination
  • ANGLE INCLUS = Included Angle


Should the difference of 1.58 degrees in castor (CHASSE) be alarming?

The included angle (ANGLE INCLUS) is way too high and is causing wear on the outside of my tires.
I had changed my lower control arms but nobody had come up with a good reason why changing those should be the cause of such a bad included angle:

Could anyone list factors that may go into such an alignment problem?
