ive spent a winter in georgia. i do not feel bad for you.
What's the sizing on the wheels? Offset? Tires? Camber?
to all that, but add a camber adjustment for good measure.

nah they fit pretty decent, and the camber int 2 bad, I honestly dont know the camber adjustment
On 15" wheels the sidewall of a 195/50 is OEM for height and overall tire circumference for the 4th generation Civics. 195/50 = 97.5 mm sidewall height. 205/40 = 82 mm sidewall height. The circumference of that setup is less than OEM or "Short" for the overall gearing. On my ride I went to 205/45-16 which is just a bit taller than stock to correct the speedometer error.
For camber, the picture appears to be way off on the front and off on the rear with excessive negative camber numbers. Stock there is no adjustment for camber on these models. To correct rear camber, when it's negative as it appears for this ride is simple. Just pull the bolts on the upper rear arms and put some washers under them to shim out the arms.
For the front, there are a couple of different aftermarket kits that will work.
Judging from the pictures, it should be corrected to steer correctly, especially under power, and for optimal tire wear.

Nice pic! So you really are running 205/40- that's over an inch (21.4) less than where you're supposed to be for a stock Civic (22.7), and almost 2 inches less than where you're supposed to be for a B series transmission (23.4). A 205/50-15 would get you right to 23.0-23.1 inches, which is where most people go for the optimum gearing and contact patch.
Yeah, camber looks pretty high honestly. I'm running high negative camber on the S2000, but not as much as this CRX. I'm going to guess the front is in the -3 degree range. Correction to positive will make the tires poke out of the fenders.
