If you're within <-2.0 degrees of negative camber, and have ZERO toe all-around; that is not a bad thing at all for a street vehicle.

Toe eats tires fast. Camber not as much, but can make you rotate much more often to even out the wear, and in some cases, folks flip the tire around (providing it's not directional) So that the inner wear moves to the outside.

What the above local boy says is true otherwise. Though I think toe-out improves turn in ;-P Toe-in improves straight-line stability, and zero is just a good all-around street setting.

So to sum up, if you want to go down this road, find a shop that will do your alignment before getting the springs installed. I understand a Dealer's stance on not wanting to touch a modified suspension, they don't want the liability.
