Default Alignment questions

I have a 95 850 Turbo. I've noticed that, when I cut the wheel, the camber on the outside tire is POSITIVE while the inside is negative. It's like the caster goes from positive to negative based on where the wheels are turned. If this is the case, wouldn't it be bad for handling and really bad on tires? It would explain some things.

Time to inspect the steering and suspension components for play and it would make more sense if you posted pictures of your concern.
