did you take the opportunity to replace anything else whilst swapping the springs?

Yes if they're phase 2.

but that won't give you more camber

if you look from above the damper tops should be more towards the windscreen than the headlights

are you using standard shocks? there is a bit of movement on some aftermarket shocks which give a bit of camber adjustment, try loosening the 18mm bolts that hold the strut to the hub, and pull the top out, hopefully pulling the top of the wheel out, then obviously retighten, and get your tracking checked after doing anything suspension related
