1) thats why you get an alignment. they'll be able to adjust it to the proper camber setting.(as well as caster/toe/etc..)

2) i hear some people count how many threads there are... maybe that would work?

Weaponx12o is on a distinguished road
eyeing it wont work, although they look the same, it might still be off.

and you can count the rings, but it takes time. you can also measure from the bottom of your rim (not tire) to the fender, but make sure your tires are inflated right and make sure the camber is the same for both sides or else you will get false measurements
