Default what Camber do you run?

I installed eibach springs yesterday on my Z. Thats a fun job. My Camber is very substantial now so I was gonna get a alignment done tomorrow. I am a very aggressive driver, so I want the right amount of camber. I was wondering what anyone else out there has gone with on their Z and their results, I want to max out my tire life of course!

If you want to max out your tires life you should get your toe and camber at oem settings. You won't be able to adjust the front camber.

thats fine, my front camber isn't out that much, the back camber is crazy though, definently needs an adjustment. I guess thats what I am asking, how are others tires wearing with oem settings? are they wearing evenly?

My rear tires only lasted about 8k miles cause I had too much negative camber in the rear after I lowered the Z. Got a camber kit and aftermarket toe bolts and was able to get rear camber down to -1.1....was -2.5 ish before fix. New tires are lasting much better now.
