Actually, by turning both cam bolts the same amount, it moved the lower control arm outboard evenly and cancelled the excessive positive camber. The SAI is now closer to stock. The wheel spacers increased the scrub radius which has helped the handling a bunch.

you have no idea what SAI is since just spacers alone throws out the SAI.
I know enough about Steering Axis Inclination to know wheel spacers don't affect it. ;-)

SAI is directly effected by added spacers and non-OE spec'ed wheel size as it changes the centerline of the contact patch which is part of the SAI and scrub radius.
Recheck your notes... SAI is an angle - the angle of the steering axis through the balljoints when viewed from the front or rear with respect to vertical. A wheel spacer or differing wheel offset is not changing the angle.

Yes it is a angle and you want that angle to intersect pretty close to dead center of the contact patch or your scrub radius will be off wearing your tires no matter what.
